G5 Dual 2.0 vs Newest MacBook Pro 2.4 base model

You can choose where your menu bar goes.

If you go into your display preferences, turn mirroring off and then in the arrangement area click and drag the menu bar from the MBP screen to the 24″ display. I have been doing this for several months and works great.

Wes,

I have been trying to figure that out for a couple years……. Thanks a bunch

I knew it had to be “STUPIDLY” simple….

And I can just hear the COW screaming read the frickkin manual…… just no fun that way..

George,

I have the same G5 as you and Shane, mine has a Kona Lh in it and still works great. I have had a 15″ MBP since last Summer, it has a 17″ Sony multi-format 720p monitor hooked up to it, very comfortable support for the G5, use both in tandem a lot.

I also route FW out of the MBP into an old DV deck with component out to a Sony PVM monitor for grading, great little portable system. It also has a 1 TB Firmtec 2 drawer RAID, works great.

Have a wonderful day.
