[QUOTE="collinevan, post: 1378023, member: 241155"] So I'm a designer with a PC desktop and a Macbook Pro laptop. I spend almost all my time on my Macbook, and it's a great machine. However, as a designer I need more screen space. I could spend a ton of money on an iMac, but that might not be in the cards for me right now. What I want to do is build a setup with my Macbook. I was thinking I would get an adapter to feed my Macbook through my PC monitor and get an apple keyboard for it. I already have a Magic Mouse. I have a few questions. 1. Can I basically do a setup like this and dock my macbook and put it off to the side while I'm using it through my monitor? 2. What's the right adapter for this kind of job? [/QUOTE]
