the new iMac question

also for older type iMac users:

Me and a team are presenting some things at an exposition
next week, and i was wondering if the iMac could be used as
an external monitor.
Basically, there's a simple ASUS laptop that displays a
Flash menu that directs to a shortfilm, and to an image
archive that i programmed. Now, we want a huge screen hooked
to the laptop instead of putting the laptop there, and
someone in the team preserved an iMac. And now i'm wondering
wether you can hook this thing to the laptop as an external
screen.

Can this be done?
If not, then it's no problem, i'll just try and run a php
mysql server and stuff on the iMac so we can show the
archive, but the external monitor way saves a lot of time.

It's amazing what you can find with an internet search
engine :p
