I have a Mac mini which I bought for the vanishingly rare occasions when iPhone or iPad apps don’t have some functionality I need that a full-on bit of software has. I already had an Apple keyboard which I used with the iPad if I needed to do any big typing. I also have a trackpad which I prefer to a mouse.
Being cheap I decided to do without a monitor, the Apple ones are ridiculously expensive, so for the last 3-4 years I’ve used an ancient TV screen as an occasional monitor. It’s very low res, and 4:3 ratio, but it sort of works, although some windows don’t entirely fit and I sometimes have to go into the display settings and faff about. Last week I saw that there is a class of thing called a portable monitor, so I bought one on Amazon for £125. It’s better than the TV screen but it has a very annoying habit of blanking for a second or so every few minutes, so I wouldn’t recommend it for someone who needs to spend any amount of time in front of it. Another option, if there is already a PC or laptop in the vicinity, is to remote in and use the Mac mini as a headless server using VNC or some such.
