[QUOTE="walkerj, post: 634642, member: 9385"] I don't have to close the lid to watch a movie. DVD player, Quicktime (well, QTAmateur in my case), etc. all obediently play the movie in the external screen, leaving the lower screen available for...well, not much other than showing my pretty background. The Dock goes away when I play a movie full screen. But no mini-movie. But then again, I use Spaces, so if I'm watching a movie and, say, get an email I just pause it, flip over to the space Mail is in, check what it is, then flip back to resume. [/QUOTE]
