bobodude · 01-06-2018, 10:39 AM

Hi, i am seriously considering getting the max carta 2 (will probably get it anyway),

but would like to hear some comments from those who have it, specifically regarding using it as a HDMI monitor (even better if on a linux computer).

What i am mostly interested in, is to use the Max 2 as a monitor to browse the web, read PDF's, write in Liberoffice/atom/vim, ...

Video footage would be awesome.

Thanks in advance :-)

PS: i have seen comments on other threads regarding this issue, but it would be nice to have the info in one thread (might be useful for others browsing the site too ...)
