npub1pfe56vzppw077dd04ycr8mx72dqdk0m95ccdfu2j9ak3n7m89nrsf9e2dm (npub1pfe…e2dm) the craziest practice I ever had here was using an iMac and laptop, with a thunderbolt hub and extra montor, etc. I discovered I could plug in the laptop and leave the iMac plugged in too, then just lightly unplug and replug the iMac, putting it in target display mode to the laptop.
So it always appeared I had an iMac and a monitor but sometimes the computer driving them was a laptop.
Apple took out target display mode years ago but it was a neat trick.
