That iMac has built-in video output, but not input, so there's no way to do it directly with a cable. Is there any way I can still use my old iMac to create a dual monitor setup, either through software or hardware (that doesn't damage the iMac since it still works fine, albeit slow)? I've scoured the web for alternatives to ScreenRecycler, but none of them offer support for OS X 10.4 or PPC so far as I know, and I don't know that much about VNC or of any programs like ScreenRecycler that only require you to install a VNC program on the client computer. I've found that this can be achieved through the program ScreenRecycler, but unfortunately my MacBook is running OS X 10.11, and ScreenRecycler is only supported up to 10.10 (the program keeps asking to install the drivers because it can't find them, despite installing them a couple of times already). I have an old iMac G4 (800 MHz, PowerPC, running OS X 10.4.11) that I'd like to use as a second monitor to my MacBook, particularly for recording music in Logic, but apparently it's too old to be used as such via any sort of cable.
