Oh, what exact machine is this? Maybe I can ask around and see if I can dig up one myself, and hey, I always need an excuse to get a new display :) thanks, greg k-h
The machine is a macbook air 13" mid 2011, with a thunderbolt port (physically identical to a mini display port). I hear Linus is using a MBA 11", so I don't feel alone here running linux on this thing. The display is a 27" Apple thunderbolt display. It's a gorgeous display with deep colors and lots of dynamics, and not (much) more expensive than other 27" display. But it doesn't hot plug (in linux, yet) and the only input is through the thunderbolt cable so no luck in using alternatives like HDMI (neither VGA, but VGA doesn't support the display resolution 2560x1440 anyway).

Good luck,
Francois
