| Well some newer 30" monitors do support displayport, but I suspect a new
| 30" monitor makes your existing price ratio even worse. :)

Not that Apple one, as far as I can tell:

| I certainly think it is way too early to remove DVI from computers given
| how few displays support it yet.

The Mini has a mini DVI port but it isn't dual-link.  That's why you
need to get this awkward and expensive cable to support the Apple 30"
display.  I don't know about other current 30" displays.
