iBook dual screen 🙂

So yes, I have an iBook. Its nice, I like it a lot, but the video mirroring limitation is annoying as it means I can’t really use the iBook as a desktop replacement. I mentioned this to at the weekend and he peered at me curiously and said “sure you can due dual display, just like a Powerbook. Have you not seen Screen Spanning Doctor?” Suffice to say I had not, but I have now 🙂

So, some fiddling with my desk arrangement and I had my iBook running 1024*768 and my desktop monitor running 1600*1200 with screen spanning, even CodeTek Virtual Desktop played nice (I guess ‘cos it works with Powerbooks!). Rockin’. Apple keyboard, mouse and a Griffith iStand are on order, so I can kill off my desktop. Life is good.
