Any conceivable way just turn off the screen in iMacs?

I'm running Leopard btw, so some of the software out there just doesn't work. Anything else that does?

Thanks
 
You can set it as a hot corner in desktop and screen saver under system preferences. (In Leopard at least)

No problem. I was happy about this feature as well. I'm not sure if it was in Tiger, but I don't think it was. Regardless, it works like a charm.
 
I think it's a new Leopard feature.

However for anyone out there using Tiger, there's a widget that does the same thing.

(I have Leopard, but am not upgrading until .1 comes out)

Hot corners? Yep, it's in Tiger. My 4 yr old daughter doesn't think too kindly of the hot corners tho; once in a while, a mis-slight-of-hand affects her online games 😉

No no, I mean the option of "SLEEP DISPLAY" being in the hot corners option box. I know that hot corners have been around since Tiger. You are right though, they can be a bit too sensitive sometimes, but I still love 'em.
