Help! I think I made a BIG mistake! I'll be teaching a MIDI Sequencing class next semester at a small college (using DP of course). Since the Music Department is brand new, the chairman asked me to reccomend the equipment and software to set up 5 MIDI/Audio stations (one instructor, 4 student stations.) We purchased 5 G5 iMacs- I then realized the iMacs do not have monitor outputs, which is a problem since the instructor Mac screen will need to be projected onto the wall, so that all the students can see the demonstrations. Is there any way to output the iMac's screen to a video projector?
Thanks in advance for your help!

I don't know the iMacs very well, but I would look towards your firewire port and see if there is a unit that you could output to. EG. a Canopus system.
I just checked the spec sheet of the iMac. It says it does and also Svideo output.
Here's a link
http://www.apple.com/imac/specs.html
Also check out the wide screen spec.
Hope this helps
Good luck

If you recheck the specs at apple, you'll also see a standard vga output. Okay, not standard, you need an adapter, which either came with the computer or you can get it for $40 or so at an apple store.
Breathe in, breathe out. Relax.
