32' Wide Screen for 2012 Mac Mini?!?

Can I run a 32' wide screen on a 2012 Mac Mini?

I know i would probably have to use the mini display port rather that the HDMI port.

Looking for a screen for photo editing.

Thanks

Yes'

If the display has Display Port input, then yes' you can use a Mini DisplayPort to Display Port cable.

(some displays that support Display Port input, even ship with a MDP to DP cable)

If the display does not have Display Port input, then it will work fine using either an HDMI to HDMI cable or a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and HDMI cable.

Can you recommend a reasonably priced widescreen display?

I have a couple of older Samsungs and an LG that I use with my Mac Mini's.
