And if i buy it i want to be able to watch normal television on it, but i dont know how to do that? please dont have complicated answers im not very good with technical stuff

Answer
To watch TV on a projector you will need a either a cable box, digital set-top-box or satellite receiver since TVs are only able to produce a picture on it's own screen

Say, for example you have a cable box. Instead of plugging it into the TV the lead will go to the back of the projector whether it is an HDMI lead or composite ( yellow red white )

How to make an amazing presentation with two projectors?

Anonymator

Hey! Movie theaters are an amazing experience. My objective for a high school project is to create a theater experience. Let me be more clear. My plan: Have two long white bed sheets/anything white and long to be used as a screen for a large audience. (It must be with a low budget <$100) I have 2 epson projector, one 13" retina mac book pro.
I want to create the most realistic panoramic experience ever! I want to be able to have videos in video, and have the ability to control each video playing. Or at least something in that base.
The space I have is an average classroom size.
Ready for a curve ball?? This will be a video/skit. Yes! You've read right! There is a live performance, and it will be based on Beowulf. Take it as Beowulf 21st century. I wonder if its possible to connect microphones to the mac?? What do you all think? is it possible?
---------------- Changing the subject just a bit-------
Im planning to use this technique based on your comments on a high school fundraising event called the HUNGER GAMES!! We did it last year, picked up an impressive 1.5k even after giving away an iPad mini. Presentation wise, it needed work.

The ability to go a little above and beyond no matter the work I must put in, Im sure it will be worthwhile. To think this all would be possible thanks to the replies, and comment attributed by the yahoo community is unique.

Please help,

p.s. - You want to get these yahoo points? lol take that as the bate.

Answer
"panoramic experience" must mean extended desktop, not two projections of the same thing, right?

A notebook computer has exactly one video out port. One signal comes from that port. Your plan calls for two signals, one with the Finder and the other an extended desktop. That can only be done using two graphics cards. You need a tower, such as a PC tower with two graphics cards or a Mac Pro with two cards.

Yes, many people report getting extended desktop to a pair of displays / projectors by using a USB adapter, but that doesn't have the graphics level for decent video.
