[dba-Tech] iMac as Monitor

[Rocky Smolin]

There's no HDMI/VGA/EVGA connectors on the back.  Just some USB ports.
Which means maybe not a passive monitor like me second (and first) monitor,
but probably some kind of support software running on the MAC OS.

I have not tried that but can see not reason why not. I think it is as
simple as having the right connectors and setting the monitor's setting.

Can an iMac serve as a second monitor on a Windows system? 

 

I have this lovely Mac in the closet (don't ask) and would like to use it
for something.  Desk space prohibits another comp but if I could replace my
second monitor with the Mac then I could use the Mac for music,
photoshopping, etc. while still having my second monitor for my Windows box.
