Using a 27" Dell Monitor with 27" iMac as dual monitors

All right so the question is pretty simple. I am going to get both the 27" iMac and the 27" Dell UltraSharp 2709W Widescreen Flat Panel Monitor. I want to use the Dell as a second monitor for the iMac. So, what adapters or cables would I need to acomplish that? Info about the monitor:

CONNECTIVITY
High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)
Digital Visual Interface (DVI) with High Definition Content Protection (HDCP)
DisplayPort
Video Graphics Array (VGA), Composite Video, Component Video

Thank you

You don't know what you are talking about. So Windows would be good choice for you.
