Very quick and specific question. My new 2012 Mini arrived today, as did the 27" NEC PA271W monitor I want to use with it (colour critical Photoshop and Lightroom is my intended use).
Here's my question: which cable should I use to drive this monitor with my Mini? I suspected I needed to get the MiniDisplay Port to Dual Link DVI adaptor; I went to my local Mac store, and they didn't know the answer, and they live-chatted with Apple, and their representative didn't know the answer (actually recommended a different, wrong, adapter). I'd rather not use the HDMI out port.
This is a pretty common monitor, I think, so I'm surprised they didn't know. But I'd bet someone HERE does...
If you could help, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks!

PS 2.6GHz QuadCore i7, Fusion drive, waiting for the RAM to arrive. Ordered *Monday*, here today (despite them saying it'd arrive around the 15th).
