IMEO Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Greetings and thank you for any input and assistance. I have a 2 year old 1.67GHz 17" Powerbook G4 and now just purchased a 2.16GHz 17" DualCore MacBook Pro, is there any way to set up the older PBG4 as just a monitor / extended desktop for the MBP ? Thanks so much ! Best regards, T Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/32647-use-a-17pbg4-as-extended-desktop-monitor-for-a-17mbp/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Nonny Moose Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 There is a VNC controller that will allow you to use another Mac or Windows box as a second monitor. Can't remember the name of the thing, but I did post about it here.
