There’s a rumor that Apple will release a new Mac mini this year. I hope it’s true. And I have an idea that might spur sales of the tiny Mac and the iPad Pro: let us use the tablet as a screen for the Mac mini.
The Duet Display app — well, actually, it’s two apps: one for your Mac and one for your iOS device — allows you to use your iPhone or iPad as an extra display with a Mac. Let’s take it one step further and allow a Mac mini to use an iPad Pro as the main display (the iPhone is too small for this task).
I’d love to be able to make a busy trip using my iPad Pro while, say, I’m on a plane, but then be able to use my Mac mini along with a keyboard and mouse when I get to my hotel room.
Of course, I also want to be able to use my Mac mouse with my iPad Pro, but that’s probably not going to happen anytime soon.
