Q: Two mini displayport (Apple LED Cinema 1900x1200) displays with 2012 Mac Mini?
I'm considering switching my 2009 Mac Pro with a 2012 Mini. The Mac Pro has two mini displayport monitors that I would transfer to the mini if that is possible. Haven't been able to find out if it can be done. It appears that I could connect one monitor to the Thunderbolt port. Can I connect, through an adapter, the other to the HDMI port? Is there another way?
Mac mini, OS X Server, Late 2012 Quad 2.6GHz i7

You can get an HDMI>displayport converter and use a displayport-min displayport cable like this.

It is $79.
Note you can use a mini displayport>HDMI adopter and use it in the other direction.
