Mac mini video support

[MacPC]

Hi I am in the research stage of getting the i7 Quad core Mac Mini.
Apple's web site doesn't say the highest resolution it supports.
I want to have a 27" or even 29" monitor as the main display (27" is 2560x1400)
and attach a smaller (1920x1080) to the HDMI port. I am wondering if the Mini supports it .

Thanks.

The Mac Mini will support a screen of that size.

I use my apple 30" cinema HD display at 2560x1600 on my mac mini i5 so I'm guessing you should be good.

sorry, missed the HDMI part of your post....I've never gotten good results out of HDMI, I went the thunderbolt to DVI adapter route, maybe do that with and add a splitter?

If you wait for Haswell mini then you could do this combo -- 4K screen @699.00 (US price ) and 32" LED HD panel @ 399 (US Price) The HDMI limit is 1920*1200 but TB / mdp port will max out @3,840-by-2,160 with the Haswell chip ..

just bought this little puppy for my desk at work...love it (max res 1920x1200 though I remember reading 2560x1600 somewhere when I ordered it) http://www.asus.com/Monitors_Projectors/MX279H/

Thx all for replying. It's hard for me to imagining the Mini won't support a 27"(2560x1440) monitor, so I took the chances bought a used one on eBay.
