Hi all

I have recently purchased my first ACD (23") that I have been using with my Powerbook G4 12" using the dual-desktop spanning thing which has been great.

Now I have also picked up a Dual 2.7 Powermac G5 which is now hooked up to the ACD freeing up my Powerbook for it's original portable use.

However sometimes when using Photoshop it was great to have my pallets and stuff open on the Powerbook screen and work on the photo in full glory on the ACD. Which brings me to the question: Can my Powerbook be used as a 'slave' type screen? i.e. Can I hook it all up somehow so that I can use the PB screen and the ACD together in desktop-spanning mode - all run thru the Powermac????

Hope that's not too confusing?!! :)

Thanks in advance,
Danny
