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: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201927 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, David
