you can also get a keyboard monitor switch and share the monitor and
- if desired - a keyboard between both computers.

I think there is an adapter plug for laptops that plugs into the
video out and simulates a screen so that you can use the laptop
without thedisplay but this is more than a plug and simulates a
monitor attached.
Whehter or not a computer boots without monitor depends on the
computer and the setup. Have someone sighted go into the cmos (bios)
and check if the computer can be set to boot without screen attached.
This is often a bios setting - but not always.

thinking of doing is to turn the old one into a Jukebox for music.
but I have very little room and don't want to buy another screen
since my screen is only 6 months old. how can I run it with out a
screen I have tried this a while a go and the computer does not work
correctly with out a screen hooked up could I find a old screen and
cut the end off the plug that goes into the computer and just plug
that in. will that full the computer that there is a screen attached?
