I'm not convinced that this is possible. All computers go tits up, need rebooting and need updates / maintenance. Running with the monitor off, OK. Running without a monitor, not practicable.

I know I couldn't run my Mini without a monitor (mine being a TV)

I agree with you on the inevitable system freeze, etc. I keep my Mac Mini in the equipment rack with other components but have a monitor/keyboard/mouse connected in an adjacent storage room if I need it. 95% of the time though, everything works fine using the iTouch alone. I also have an Apple TV connected to my video projector, but I use that for movies only (OK....an occasional YouTube video too).
