iMac Screen Spanning
Jan 3rd, 2008 by Nate
Every whif of documentation I’ve pored through told me that the only way the iMac can support screen spanning (having multiple monitors act like one giant desktop) is if you use crazy dangerous firmware hacks that can potentially brick your computer, void the warranty, and cause the sky to fall. Tonight, I plugged in my new 22″ widescreen Acer monitor, setup the display, and well…
It works out of the box, no changes required. As proof, I submit this picture of super-maximized iPhoto.
For the record, my model is a circa late 2006 iMac, 2.16ghz, Ati Radeon X1600. And the screen spanning works AMAZING. Completely flawless.
