Or you could avoid all the trouble and bad a Surface RT or Pro, isn't it? Compatible out of the box with thousands of printers, scanner and every kind of peripheral you can possibly imagine.

Perhaps you didn't read the article, but it's about using an iPad display panel as an external monitor for a computer (via displayport).

There are no other parts of the tablet, only a screen.

It's just a display. You missed the point.

Also, Surface RT does not have much in the way of drivers for peripherals. It's a really broken ecosystem.
