"Since last year" is the operative phrase ... my Mic Minis (about three
years old) do not have a second video output and no option to add any.
However, this isn't specifically about the Mac Mini.  I could named any
of several netbook and/or small Windows based laptops that have no
external monitor support but I wanted to also highlight that Flex do
not support OS-X or LINUX in any way ... even in the new PowerRX.  Good
Luck controlling the Flex 6500 or 6700 from your iPAD or iPHONE!

73,

Since last year, the Mac Mini has a standard HDMI port, as well as a ThunderBolt port (developed by Intel) where you can use an inexpensive adaptor to convert it for VGA, DVI or HDMI.  Add 8 gigs of RAM, and this cheap little i5 machine works great!
