[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1005145, member: 24098"] You can attach a network cable between the Ethernet ports on the MacBook Pro and iMac. When you boot the iMac for the first time, it will ask if you'd like to transfer data from another Mac, choose that option and you should be able to transfer (while still leaving the data intact) from the MacBook Pro. Unfortunately, that I can't speak to. My guess would be that you'd use a mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable and that the iMac would autoswitch to work as a monitor when a valid signal is detected, but I have no personal experience with this.
