I don't know if its just me but I have an obsession with Apples 30" Cinema Displa, so anyone out there with one of these or even two, I would appreciate some piccys :D
 
Im obsessed with them. Although pricey, once they drop under $2500, I'll get one. I feel pity for those that paid $3999 for the 22" Cinema Display several years ago.

Imagine my 20" LCD placed on it's side and multiplied by 2.5 and I've got a pretty good idea how much bigger the 30" is than to my 20".
 
I don't have a 30 incher but I've got a huge......... :eek:


Oh......Your talking about displays......My bad.









The topic was just begging for it. :D

Too late now buddy-boy! :D

I keep my 30 incher in my pants... ;)

If you put this back into the intended subject of this thread, i'd say that would be hard to do, unless you have gigantic pants. :D
 
I also am very interested in the 30" Cinema Display. So far it's only looking at on when I visit my local Apple Store. My wife is also very interested.
 
You know it doesn't help that this is in the picture gallery and its called your 30 incher :rolleyes:


but back on subject i wonder, does anyone have dual 30 inchers?

Is it possible to drive 2 30" displays with a video card currently available?

I would love to know what kind of FrameRate you get with UT2004 on that 30" with the Xtra Graphic's Card in the G5.

Anybody have a clue?

Hey now, this could be a mastercard commercial...

buying the 23" acd in july/02.....$3499
needing the dvi -> adc adapter...$199
watching everybody piss and moan and get green with envy years ahead of the curve...priceless

Yeah you pay dearly for high-end gear, especially apple. But when your family, friends, see that screen, it somehow is worth it. Oh yeah and the fact that it is the best ****ing monitor on the planet...well that helps too,

Dual 30" displays are old hat. Someone get the PCI Express version of the X800 and get 3 of those displays running!
