so anyway, i may be in the market for a small external LCD monitor for my iBook to span onto (with that hack), but i have a few questions.
has anyone else tried the monitor spanning hack with their ibooks? can the video card handle it ok?
second question, what LCD should i get?
I want it to be able to be hooked up using the adaptor that came with the ibook itself.
I want a fairly small one. my desk has a shelf on it that limits the height of things on the desk to about a foot and an inch or two.
I want something on the cheap side, but without sacrificing resolution (other quality issues aren't a huge deal, as long as its not falling apart on me. i'm not gonna be gaming on it or doing graphic design with it, i just want some extra screen space, as the 12" screen is a little limiting on a desk.)
