Nice joke but no cheese

Nice dummy images, but I seem to recall there's nowhere on the imac to plug in the second screen. Or is this a very highly advanced application of bluetooth? 😉

And if you think i'll download, open and click on some random script, mmm...

There is a port on the back intended for mirroring to a projector or whatever. You just need to get the mini-VGA to VGA adapter from apple for £15 😛 😛 😀

Is that the 17" or the 20"? I'm guessing 17" but only because otherwise that's a massive Dell screen.

Glad the screen spanning hack works...

yeah there the 17s you can tell because the white chunk looks massive but it looks good with the 20"

The hack worked for the FX5200 on the G4 iMac, I was hoping it would work on the G5. Thanks for the confirmation.

And no, it doesn't void the warranty. It's a software hack. It just enables what's already built-in, but disabled. It's easily reversible, and if something were to happen, there would be no way Apple could tell.

(just thought I'd get that out of the way before someone else starts unintentionally giving FUD)
