How do I use my notebook monitor for my desktop processor ?

Mar 12, 2005 6:20AM PST

In other words, I want to hook up my desktop PC to my notebook, and use its' screen as the desktop's monitor.

Is this doable?

Grateful for any help!

It shows how to do this.

Some want a VGA input to the laptop. This is something I've never seen. Have you?
