I'm forced to use this beast: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A To run a 30 in secondary display off my 17 MBP. It's flakey and I have to make my machine never sleep when it's plugged in. The other day I got a KVM switch to do windows builds and it runs through it. Fortunately I don't have a terrible case of "Fuzz of Death:" http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1837465&start=0&tstart=0 http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1837465&#3... But it does happen every now and again. Total PITA esp considering that their old display ports worked just fine.

If your 30" display supports DisplayPort, you will soon be able to get a Mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable (http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10246&cs_id=1024606 http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102...). Why it's taken this long, I do not know.
