Display for Mac Mini

A few questions:

  1. Can a late 2013 iMac be used as a display for a new Mac Mini (the screen displays the Apple logo but it refuses to boot)?
  2. If yes, is it just about connecting the 2 devices or is anything else required?
  3. If no, then what’s an ideal and not so expensive display to use?

iMac 27″, macOS 10.15

Ok, so I can’t use the now dead late 2013 27” iMac, got it! In which case, I’d need to re-evaluate if I should get the Mac Mini at all. Basically, I like to have the entire setup (minus the keyboard and trackpad) to be less than $2000. And I want at least a 27” screen (just can’t deal with small screens any more).


I basically use the Mac for investing purposes. Which is dealing with a lot of spreadsheets, most of which scroll beyond the 27” screen. The other thing is that I create videos when I can’t figure out the numbers any more, a hobby.
