Using iMAC screen with my PC

I have an HP laptop from work and would like to be able to use it with my iMAC 24" screen when I need to use it at home. I have software on the PC laptop that I can't transfer to the iMAC. Is there any way that I can do this??

Have done several searches for "PC", "monitor", "screen" etc - but have not had any luck finding a relevant thread :dummy:

Many thanks!!!

I think your basic question is whether you can use the iMac screen as an external display for your HP laptop. Unfortunately, the answer is "no".

Many people have asked this and no, you can't do this.


Here is just two of the relevant threads, that may provide you with some more information:

Thanks for the replies

I guess I am stuck with my 12" HP laptop screen for work. I have been spoiled by the 24" iMac - have only had it for 2 weeks but I'm hooked.
Cheers.
