Of course you do not need any monitor but it is very convenient to have one built in. Especially if you want to use emulators like the CP/M Plus emulator or the DOS box, or to have terminal emulator for the BASIC3. A USB keyboard can simply plugged in, I use Bluetooth keyboard because the Raspi has Bluetooth on board.

Buttons for Shutdown and Run

 
To keep prices down, the Raspberry Pi is missing something that most electronic devices come with: a switch to turn it on and off. That’s OK, you say, we’ll just pull the plug to turn it off. Unfortunately, this can lead to corruption problems with the SD card. All the instructions say you should run the shutdown command before pulling the plug, but this is not always possible, particularly when your Raspberry Pi is running headless without a connected keyboard and monitor, and possibly even without a network connection. So, what can a self-respecting DIYer do? The answer, of course, is ‘add your own switch’!

I would like to use only one button for turn off and on again the Raspi as described in How to add a power button to your Raspberry Pi but for this we need GPIO3 and this pin is already used by the I2C communication. I chose GPIO21 (pin 40) for shutdown
