    Hello,

    Just a short question:

    - I have iMac 27" (latest version)
    - I just bought XPS 17 SB

    Can i use the screen of iMAC as external display?
    Anyone who tried it already?
    Info : Apple - iMac - Features of Apple?s all-in-one desktop computer.

    Mini DisplayPort.
    The Mini DisplayPort lets you connect an external display, including the Apple LED Cinema Display, to your iMac. On the 27-inch iMac, the same port offers input, too. So you can connect any external source that has DisplayPort output — including a MacBook or MacBook Pro — and use your iMac as a display.
