I have my man mini conntected to my TV and I was wondering...

If I have a PC game running under Boot Camp on the mini, is there anyway that I can view the screen on my old ibook. I am hoping to do this since some games require reading text, and the resolution on the TV is just not good enough...

Thanks,

Mr. Cranky

The only way to do it would be somewhat clunky. You would need to install MS Remote Desktop Client on the iBook (free), and then connect to the mini (RDC works best if you know the IP address).

Why not just use a monitor?
