Dual-Link DVI DisplayPort delay drama!

Sorry, Dual-Link DVI fans: we’re getting reports this morning that those of you who have been eagerly anticipating the adapter that makes your shiny new DisplayPort MacBook work with your Dual-Link DVI display has been—oh noes!—delayed. One user forwarded us his shipping notification, which cites an “unexpected delay” that means the adapter will now ship out on December 18th. That’s right, just in time for Christmas.
Likewise, the online Apple Store is now saying there’s a delivery time of 4-5 weeks for the Dual-Link adapter which, as you may recall, costs a hefty $99. Until then, you’ll have to hang out with the rest of us in the single-link proletariat. It’s okay: we have cookies, hot chocolate, and hugs for everybody.
