iPhoto slideshow question

Hey guys, I have a quick question about iPhoto 09, i will be showing a slideshow on my external monitor at a small fair this weekend, and I was wondering if I could still use my computer while the show is playing. Normally, when I do this on my own, it blacks out my main screen, while the slideshow goes on the other. Is there a way that I can turn that off so I can use my other laptop display?

No. And you don't want to, unless you want your viewers to enjoy a jerky, underperforming slideshow every time you do something mildly processor intensive.

Ah, that's stupid. I'll just make a photoshow and have it loop through Quicktime then. Thanks!
