Hello, thank you for reading this. Can I use iMac early 2008 as Mac mini display? in that case, which cable do I need? and steps to do it?.
Muy iMac early 2008 works fine but a little slow, so I would like to use its monitor as monitor for Mac mini. Is it possible? Thank you.
No sorry, because it does not have video inputs or support Target Display Mode.
see > Use your iMac as a display with Target Display Mode - Apple Support
At best you can use a VNC like ScreenRecycler, but it will require a normal monitor to setup and have a very slow refresh rate.

none of this works?
No sorry! The only video port on your Early 2008 iMac is the Mini DVI port and it is output only.
Thank you! You have been very helpful. 😉
You're welcome!
Only by setting up Virtual Network Computing; all of these methods require a standalone monitor.
