    30" Apple Screen

    If you want to run this on a Apple you need a 6800 with DDL or something - what about if you want to run it on a PC?

    Driving Force

    The 30-inch Cinema HD Display is so big, it requires the next level of graphics technology. The NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL graphics card delivers, with the most advanced graphics engine available for Mac. This card, designed specifically to support the dual link DVI connection, delivers 2560-by-1600 resolution. Even better, it can drive two 30-inch displays, giving you the ultimate creative canvas. This card will be available as a Build to Order option and as a stand-alone kit from August 2004.

    Does it have a VGA connection? IIRC the standard DVI spec only goes up to 1600x1200 at 60hz

    I'll buy one off you, £3.50 sound good?

    I think as long as you buy a graphics card supporting dual-link DVI (2 signals down the one cable or something) then you'll be fine.

    Edit: Quadros will do it:
