Showing Movies on a laptop

• You can use either your laptop or a DVD/VCR to
  play movies.
• Laptop Most of the new laptops have DVD drives
  in them, which means you place the DVD in the
  drive and use a program on the computer. Windows
  Media Player can usually play most DVDs. WMP
  controls are very basic. If you want a better
  program, I have some.

Using Speakers

• The projector has speakers built in.
• If you need more powerful speakers, a reasonably
  inexpensive set can be purchased at Best Buy,
  Target, Wal-Mart, etc. for between 10 - 20

  on your laptop or into the back of your VCR.

  cable with an audio transformer.
