MBP + 30in question

[T0mmyGunZ]

With a MBP and 30' LCD can both run at the same time and show different things on each monitor or does it have to be in clamsell mode

I tested this today on a Non SR MBP and it worked perfectly. I had them configured up and down.

Wow, so the MacBook Pro 15" have the dual-link DVI adapter?

So you can hook up two displays to it (assuming they're not 30"ers, of course)?

No. How long has dual link been around...3 years??? Dual link doesn't mean two DVI ports, it doesn't mean you can get a splitter and drive two different displays. It simply means it can carry twice the information over a single DVI port to drive a very high resolution monitor...sheesh! There have been like 500 threads on this. 🙄

Ah. I've never been able to run a 30" display so I never bothered to check. Chill out, man.
