Little tech advice if you can. Can I hook up 2 monitors to 2 desktops? My desktop looks like this: G4/400MHz (OSX 10.2.8) and a Pentium4/1.8GHz (XP Pro). My monitors are (mac) 19" Mitsubishi Diamond pro 900u and (PC) 17” Flat CRT Monitor. Video cards are Radeon 9600 256Mb DRR (PC) and ATI RAGE 128 (mac).
Can it be done? How?!!tx

No problem if the monitors both have switchable (dual) video inputs...
If not, i guess you need a switch box in between the computers and the monitors (could also be used to run both through one keyboard/mouse)

Don't you just plug a monitor into each one... or am I missing something again!?!?!

So I get a switch box, I flick a switch, and both monitors flick from mac to pc (or vice versa)? sounds ideal
Google gave me this but it seems outdated, is it relevant?

Check the 'video splitter cable for mac', would this do the job?
