Made you look.

Apple just released their 30in cinema display! IwantoneIwantoneIwantone...

... but I just can't bring myself to spend $3299 for a monitor.

Okay, before everyone jumps all over me for posting this, I didn't realize that this had already been covered in the Tiger preview thread. I did a search on "apple monitor" and that thread didn't come up. My apologies.

Awesome. I'll be placing my order at the Apple Store tonight.

Right after I win the $220,000,000 Mega Millions jackpot.

2560x1600

The edu discount brings it down to $3,000 if you qualify... of course, you need a video card with dual link support, which is another $550 or so.

and that card can drive TWO of those displays from a Power Mac G5. That's 8.2 million pixels, boys and girls.

That display is absolutely gorgeous. It makes me start doing the calculations for what it'd cost me to buy the most basic Mac that would support that display and use it as a small home-theater display (since I really only have room for a small home theater at this point).

I don't understand. The card has 2 outputs to drive 1 dual linked 30 or 2 30s?

Uh, it has dual duals.

It takes TWO DVI cables to drive ONE monitor.
