Hi,
I have an old Mac Mini attached to my TV. However, sometimes it's hard to read what's on the screen because it's far away and not a huge screen. In a browser I can zoom in, but I can't enlarge the text on menus nor on all applications.
I have a spare monitor hanging around and I thought I could hook that up to the Mac. However, the Mac has only one video card and I'd just as soon not buy another one. I don't need to view the TV and the monitor at the same time. So if I can switch between them, I can work up close on the monitor - for example, to find what I want to watch, and then switch back to the TV once it starts streaming.
Is there inexpensive hardware that would let me do this (that would cost less than a second video card)?
Thanks!
