I'm getting a macbook pro (leopard) and want to use my 3 yr old ibook g4 as an extended desktop (dual display). Is anyone having success with this, and if so, what cord/adapter are you using?

Actually, there is a nifty bit of software called screenrecycler. http://www.screenrecycler.com/home.html This works and I used my aging G4 with its monitor right next to my dual display G5 to get a third screen. Free trial and very clean implementation. Good luck.
