[geeks] Getting into a headless eMac

The manual referred to made it clear that duplicating current desktop  
was the only function possible, but that manual reflects the state of  
the art at a particular historical point in time...

I too found contrary evidence on the net, but I'm hoping that it  
defaults to mirroring the built-in display.

There's a lot of technology in that box -WiFi, Bluetooth, OS X, etc  
that should be able to be exploited for good use...
