The good news is Y'all haven't heard from me in ages bc everything has been going so well - up until now!
I just got out to LA where I will be working from home for a couple of months.
I have a new 17" MBP, all tricked out, and an old 30" Apple Cinema Display which I love. It's not just the size, I adore the matte screen and can't abide the shiny screens on the new displays...
I am so frustrated though - I got the dual link (TB+USB) adaptor and hooked everything up and I am getting nasty horizontal lines, in either red, blue, or green (fancy that), through my Viewer and Canvas windows, and also in any quicktime player window, especially visible in the blacks.
Is there some calibration that can happen? Is hit the video card, the adaptor, or just a tragic pairing? I will be very sad to have to go back to my 4 year old 15" MBP just to see all my windows open at once on my 30" monitor...
Knowledge and experience appreciated,
Thanks,
Marla
