I think they released a new one with Linux pre-installed. I might look into that if I can sell my current one.

Oooh very cool. I wish Apple still had Target Display Mode as a feature on their devices, it'd be great to toss this in a bag as an "I might need a real computer" concession and be able to use my iPad as an external display for it.
I have been using duet[1] successfully for a while now to use my iPad as a second screen.

I'd used that from a Mac, didn't realize they had Windows support!
fwiw, Target Display Mode is still a feature on new iMacs, they never killed it per se. Won't help you on your iPad, though.
Unfortunately not anymore. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204592#requirements
> iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014) and later iMac models can't be used as Target Display Mode displays.
Or does that description apply only to 5K iMacs and not to ther other models? The "and later iMac models" statement reads as very broad to me.
