Microsoft Surface screen Model 1597
I have this huge screen sitting next to me. Is it possible to utilize it as an extra remote computer. Remote Desktop to it and see a large design blueprints? Need a large screen to see design documents. I see it has an Ethernet port.

yes, you need an adapter, what sort of input on the screen? HDMI would be good, but VGA works too.

It's probably a smart TV and the Ethernet port is for internet access. Again as it's not a real computer, there is no way to RDC to it.

It has two DisplayPorts. One in, one out. HDMI and VGA ports.

Sorry, I meant for the guest computer. You do realize this is not just a screen, but a Windows 10 computer.

Exactly. It has a lot more than just a screen :)
Two cameras and two pens on each side.
I think its called MS Surface Hub.

You should be able to run an HDMI cable from your Surface to the TV and use it as a secondary monitor. Just extend your desktop to the screen.

Didn't really want to run cables here. Was hoping its a full blown computer. Which it is. Maybe the OS just stripped down off RDC.

Thanks Fred and Will. I was able to boot it up and get into the Bing browser. From there I got into google drive. So that works for me for now. Not the best quality because google drive compressing images into a lower resolution. But it still larger screen.
Maybe I figure if there access to the local file system and save files directly there over the network.
Definitely it doesn't look like a full Windows OS.
