Plugging directly into a 'normal' DVI adapter ie single-link DVI will not
support the display's native resolution of 2560x1600. Single-link adapters
will instead deliver a maximum of half the supported resolution, 1280x800.
Single-link adapters include the typical Apple-style DVI>MiniDP adapter
dongle most are used to using.. See:

So if anyone feels like giving the video group a christmas present of this
pricey adapter cable, that'd be really great! It would be kept with the
monitor.
Best,
