Hi, I have a powerbook G3 pismo running OS X 10.1. I have an HP pavalion dv 1000 laptop, I was wondering what I would need to run the HP as a second screen for the powerbook or if this is even possible?

Thanks

There is a program called ScreenRecycler that can do this. Unfortunately the current version requires at least version 10.4 I think. The site does have a link to an older version but I am not sure of the requirements. I doubt you can find something for 10.1 though.

Lol. Actually I am not using it at the moment. Figured two external screens were enough.
