      It can be pretty clumsy on Windows but I’ve found that Apple’s server/client works pretty well, at least over a LAN. Not sure what the iPad client situation is like.

        It’s clumsy over a LAN, nevermind the Internet. Apple’s VNC is not a patch on something like Microsoft’s RDP. It’s a poor solution, and depends on you having a good connection at the remote end. And you’ll also be using a tiny iPad screen. If you buy an iPad Pro and Magic folio and a Mac Studio then you’ve probably spent as much as a MacBook Pro.

          exactly. Chromes Remote Desktop is the best solution ive found that’s not paid and it’s still got nothing on Microsofts RDP. im convinced they haven’t actually done any real work on it. just get a MacBook Pro as you said and call it a day

        Though fair warning the client (and server for that matter) are a bit janky by end-user standards.
