| How many displays can you use with a 2012 Mac mini? I think the number is three (two with Thunderbolt and one with HDMI), but I want to be sure. |

| That's a good question. I know the 2011 Mac mini with dedicated graphics supported using three displays. I know you can run two Thunderbolt displays with the HD 4000 Mac minis. I just don't know what happens with the HDMI port for video out. I would assume that it's still available, but I'm not 100% sure. |

I'm going to say no on three displays because this is what they say about the MacBook Pros with retina. Which, by the way, have the same Intel HD 4000 graphics.
| Quote: | MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) and MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012) computers can use an HDMI-compatible device on it's HDMI port while using one Thunderbolt dislplay, or it can use two Thunderbolt displays.

| I haven't read anything confirming two thunderbolt displays with another through HDMI, making three total. Has anyone been able to confirm this? |
