Television As Second Monitor?, display question Options

[vollrath]

Hi,
I was wondering if there was any way to use a television as a second monitor, not just an identitacl image of my notebook display. I use an iBook 600 with the TV adapter, and the adapter itself works fine, it's just that it might be handy to be able to use it in the way I described above.

I'm not sure what kind of display I have, but I THINK it's a Rage ATI or something..

Thanks for the help,
Vollrath

I think a mirrored image of your notebook is the only way you could use TV without adding another video output device that may cost several hundred dollars and is not worth it really considering the cost of just buying another cheap monitor. Also consider the resolution of the TV which is horrible compared to even the cheapest 15" monitors these days as TV is something like 512pixels wide and thousands of colors compared to millions unless you have digital HDTV. I could be wrong about the video output of the notebook though but I don't think it can do dual monitors without special video card or additional device.
