*Link* Will this monitor work with the Mac Mini?

hey guys, i just bought a mac mini and am about to set it up. i have a HDMI monitor and bought the HDMI cable to connect the Mac and i know this will work. however, i have a 2nd monitor i'd like to use which uses a DVI cable only and it's an Acer P221w which is located here: http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/monitor/0000/Acer/P221W/P221Wsp3.shtml


does anyone know if this monitor will work? what adapter do i need to buy from apple? it's this one here right?: http://store.apple.com/au/product/MB204G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA3Ng it's the micro-dvi to dvi adapter.


thanks

This is ONLY for MICRO-DVI sockets on MB-AIR! Not the Mini-DVI ones on most other Mac products...

I think you need a Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter as shown here...
