hey. ...ok, i have a pc (win XP pro), and a shitty laptop (win98se and 2000), and no monitor for the pc, the laptop doesnt have network inpu/output
(rj-45)


Q1) can i hook up my pc, so it uses the monitor on the laptop? (as a primary monitor)

Q2) my pc does have tv output, so is useing my (non hdtv) tv a good idea for a monitor? would u recommend it.


thnx

If you want to, you can chop out the LCD on the laptop and wire up the pins for a DB15/DVI

So long as the screen is a good distance away then the quality might be passible :)

Well if the laptop doesnt work .. no. When i said "chop out the LCD" i didnt mean it literally (although you could) .. you can carefully disassemble the laptop ya know.
 
oh lol...well, ya it does work, but it pretty much useless cuz the low , well, low everything. so, there is no civil way to do this?
