Mac + Pc Connecting

[mas]

Hi all, is there anyway i can use my iMac screen as the screen for my pc too? Like a program which will literally flip between my mac desktop and the vista desktop?

A friend told me about it a long time ago but i cant find anything!!

Thanks

Sam

AFAIK it doesn't have any video inputs so the quick answer is no.,

Maybe he was on about virtualising Vista on Parallels?

He mentioned using the screen "for his PC too" which sounds like he wants to connect another physical device to it.

Yeah, thats pretty much it Daz!!

Its needed as when im doing web design on the mac, I need to be able to view it through Internet explorer etc... to check it all visually works correct.

That should do the trick I think!!!

Thanks for your help chaps, have you used this before?

I could be wrong but I'm sure there's a website that will allow you to test/run a website that's in development through a larg range of browsers to check for compatibility. Sounds like that would be ideal for you.

Perhaps someone in the web design field knows what I'm referring to as I've no idea what the site was.
