I can run my 22" Cinema Display off my 15" PB, I just plug in the DVI and USB to the DVI->ADC converter box, and it wakes up the machine. I can usually then open the book up a bit for air flow, and the LCD stays off, but, if it goes to sleep and I wake it detects both displays. erik g I'm not sure you really need to boot with it connected, just waking from sleep by plugging in a USB device does the trick.
