The email I got said they have 1244 in-stock with 8000 due by next week. This was two hours ago.
 
I got an email about in stock of MDP --> DVI; I figured this was more useful to me since I can hook it up to a wider variety of LCD's plus I have a DVI-->HDMI cord for my HDTV too. Bought one!
 
Very Strange Problem - please help

Alright, so I have a the new macbook pro and i bought some cables to hook up my computer to my 2 HDTVs. The cables I bought are: MDP->DVI and DVI -> HDMI. On one TV, I have no problems at all. However, for a long time, my other TV (an Olevia 427-s11) would not recognize the connection (or the other way around, im not sure). One day when I was bored, I decided to give it another go, hoping that it would work...and it did! I didn't know why this happened- nor did I care. But, it stopped working just as mysteriously as it started. After many tests, I concluded that my TV would recognize my computer ONLY when Handbrake was encoding video files.... When Handbrake is not active, all I see is 'No Signal' on my TV screen and my computer does not change (or re-calibrate) when I plug in my MDP -> DVI; it does nothing. So, why is this happening and how can I fix it?
