Quick Mac Mini question

Is it possible to buy a mini-DVI -> Dual-Link DVI port for a Mac Mini and hook up two separate displays to it?
Wondering if those mac mini chipsets can even support two monitors.

the displays would only be able to do clone mode, because, iirc, you're essentially splitting the signal.
If so I do think the Mini comes with the mini-DVI to two DVI ports meaning two displays. Dual-Link DVI is not two displays but a DVI port which supports higher than 1920x1200 in resolution eg. a 30" monitor.
Also the Mini has a mini-displayport which you can hook up to DVI just don't buy the Apple one because it is way over priced.
In conclusion. You can hook up 2 monitors to the new Mac and they do not have to run in clone mode.
