The Inquirer is reporting that graphics giant nVidia is holding back Mac giant Apple. When Apple launched their big new LCD's a month ago, many people rejoiced and raved about how great they were. True, although the 20" and 23" models have been shipping, the Inq reports that the 30" is having problems.
The 30" displays are running with the new line of G5 machines; however, because of the sheer size of the display it requires a special graphics card that currently only nVidia ship (the GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL). The card has dual DVI outputs (both going to one screen) to handle the data.
However, apparently nVidia just isn't producing the cards; be it chip problems, reliability / stability issues, whatever, the company is unable to provide a good enough supply to allow Apple to start shipping them. How long it will take to get the cards shipping / working is unknown; if nVidia fall short on contractual agreements with Apple in terms of supply, it wouldn't be surprising to see them head elsewhere.
