> Also what's a good use case? I can play games on my powerful home PC from the crappy laptop at the office?
I'm interested because a 27" iMac is front and center on my desk, with a 24" second monitor to the right. My gaming PC is hooked up to the second input of the second monitor.
Playing a game either means turning my head to the right while the rest of my body faces forward (to have good keyboard and mouse position), or turning my whole body right, and then having to reach left for the keyboard and mouse. Can't do whole body right with keyboard and mouse inf front of body, because that would put the mouse in free space and the keyboard right side sticking off the desk. Neither of these is comfortable.
Moving the gaming PC to its own space with its own monitor would take major rearrangement of the living room.
Something that lets me use the Mac as a display for the games on my PC would make things much much nicer.
