Hi Ron, Yeah, I am using the hack and am very happy with it. The iBook even remembers the screens I have connected it to. And you can use I higher resolution if use synchronizing mode. I am using the iBook for graphic work and sometimes if I am working on big files there is some drawing problem. It takes a little more time. But overall I am very happy with it. I thought that the dualdesktop option would be standard on all Mac's. So I was a little disapointed when I found it wasn't so. After a long search I found: http://www.dpgrafix.com/ibook/ (It works on the 700mhz iBook and higher, so I understand) And I jumped a hole in the air of excitement.
