Hi there!

Is it possible to connect a Mac Mini to a MBP and use the screen / keyboard / mouse of the MBP to control the Mac Mini?

Cheers!

Only way is to enable screen sharing on the mini then browse to the mini on finder and select screen share. I can't recall if there is a full screen option or not though. (Also assumes you're using Leopard)

I use screen share to connect to my MacMini from my MacBook. Though the scaling of the screen makes the display difficult to read: 1680x1050 scaled down a 1280x800 screen!
