My new MBP should be arriving this week sometime. I have a 17" Apple Studio Display (one of the older white ones) that I use with my PowerMac G5 - can I use my new MacBook with this monitor, with some sort of adaptor or switcher box or something?

I'd ideally like to be able to plug my MBP into a switch box, which switches my Apple Display between my G5, and my MBP, and to be able to do a dual (not mirrored) screen layout.

When I've finished with my MBP, I switch the monitor back to my G5 again and it operates as normal.

Is this possible?
