I had a problem at a scuba club meeting; the presenter had a 12" PB
and the video out would NOT talk to the projector. I fortunately had
brought my 17"; my display connect would also not work, but I was
able to use my S-video port. . .

I think I had a similar problem with my Pismo/vga to LCD projector -
this one was a Sony. However, it warned me that it couldn't support
it at that resolution. Did you allow it to 'detect displays'?
To tell you the truth, I don't really remember what I tried - this
was 6 months ago and a one-time thing. But it definitely shook my
confidence that I could handle anything Mac! (Well, I did handle it,
but if I hadn't brought my 17" with its extra port, I don't think I
would have succeeded, since I'd already tried everything I could
think of with the speaker's 12".)
I once had a similar experience, where the S-video out of my TiBook
saved the day. It turned out that neither my TiBook nor my
colleague's iBook were at fault, but the vga cable was bad. Since
then I've given many classes in the same lecture hall with my TiBook
and the same projector - using the vga connection.
I would NOT assume that the fault lies with the mac. Issues like
resolution are more likely to be causing that problem.
