Stick the iPad in a case with magnets on to cling to a rack door and id be all over this instead of a crash cart. Especially if I could shrink wrap a sturdy HDMI cable to an adapter.

That is my plan too! Wish the ipad could send its keyboard and mouse to the server as well.

I was trying to think of a nice way to achieve that, but I suspect something like one of those logitech keyboard/touchpad wireless combos may be an easier way ahead
