You most definitely cannot hook up your iPad like you describe, it isn't made for that. Sorry buddy.

It doesn't need to be an iPad, just any touchscreen device

You mean like a touchscreen monitor to connect up to your PC?

Precisely, like a shield tablet but only for browsing the Internet

Edit: Something that I can use while in bed

They have those already, they are just called regular tablets.

I need something cheaper that only has as much processing power as a monitor (little to none) that is the size of a tablet and touchscreen

i've seen a touch screen monitor sold by acer (not sure)

but those are big and sure unusable while in bed

your best bet will probably be to get a cheap windows 2 in 1 and steam from your desktop to the tablet to be honest
