Hi,

found this link earlier for software which enables you to use your laptop screen as a second screen for your desktop via networking.

What im wondering is this - Is there any similar tool out there which supports using one windows machine with a mac? the above product only appears to support mac via virtual pc.

Any help would be good. Thanks

i have 2 screens here. one connected to my laptop, one on my pc. I want the ability to be able to use my 'laptop external screen' as my secondary PC monitor when required. You get what im saying??

If the screen you use for your laptop has two input connections, you can hook up your PC to that and press the "source" button on your monitor to switch between the laptop and the PC. You dont need any software for that :/
