    After playing around with Garageband at an Apple Store, I am considering in making the purchase in a mac mini (1.42ghz w/1gb ram). Anyways, I was wondering if it was possile to hook up the mini to the z70va, so I can use the notebook's display as my monitor. Thanks.

    Don't want to hijack the thread, but on a similar note, could you hook up a Mac mini, or any other computer for that matter, to a W2v? Is the video-in fast enough to display the second computer without delay?
