Currently I have an iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009), Model Identifier: iMac10,1
I plan on buying a Macbook Pro this year, maybe even this week. If I buy now, it will probably be the 13".
I need the laptop for a beginning programming class at school. It needs to run Windows. I need the additional monitor space (run as an extension, not a mirror), to make the coding process easier for me.
Ultimately, I will probably be buying a Dell Monitor, probably 23"-24".
I may just buy a $550 Windows laptop from Dell and get the Dell monitor.
But for I may also go ahead and buy the Macbook Pro now and, if possible for now, use my iMac as a second monitor.
Is this possible and easy enough to do? If so, what cable do I buy?
Thanks,
Zeppo
