Does The New Macbook Air Support Apple 30" LCD?

Published by on October 23, 2008

When the new Macbook Airs were released, and were promised to be packing new Nvidia chips, I immediately had the idea of buying one, ditching my iMac and connecting it to a 30″ massive LCD.

So am I so lucky as to be able to drive a Apple Cinema Display 30″ with a Macbook Air? Yes.

But there are some stipulations.

You will be able to support the full 2560×1600 resolution, however, you will need to buy an accessory, the Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter for $99.

Small price if you ask me, and you’re spending close to $1700 for a monitor, $99 isn’t that much more to ask.
