Checkout on a mac and back office on a PC?
I am looking into Checkout.
Excuse these questions may seem silly but apart from my iPhone I'm not really very knowledgeable when it comes to Apple.
Am I correct in saying that it will not run off and iPad?
I have a very small permanent outlet at a indoor market which is open daily and space is a major problem.
It was suggested that I get a mac mini with a 21" screen and a cordless keyboard and also a printer.
Screen seems quite big.
Will I be able to use the mac at the store and access the back office (think that's what its referred to as) inventory/sales reports from my PC at my home office?

You can use Command ⌘ instead of Control ^ on Mac

Hi Janet
You're correct, you can't run Checkout on an iPad.
As regards screen size, you can use Checkout perfectly well on a MacBook Air with an 11" screen. A thermal receipt printer, which is all you need with Checkout, will take up the least amount of space. I don't know if emailing receipts is an option but obviously if it is you could do away with the printer.
Checkout is a Mac only application. You could access your Checkout date file via one of the screen sharing apps or you could just email key reports to your PC.
