Hello,

I'm thinking of buying a new 2012 Mac Mini and I would like to know what I need to use my old school, 20" Cinema Display? Will it plug directly into the Mini or do I need an adapter of some sort?

Thanks. :)

There were two "old school" 20" Displays. Which one are you talking about? The acrylic one I don't think works with new Macs, even with the adapter. The Aluminum one is just DVI, so get yourself an adapter if that's what you have and do your own research on the '12 Mini display ports.
