Man, you just can't win these days. So Apple offers up an energy-efficient, forward-thinking
Mini DisplayPort on its latest
MacBook / MacBook Pro, and now users that are still rocking displays sans
HDCP-compliant HDMI / DVI ports are up fecal's creek without a paddle. Apparently select content in the iTunes Store is laced in HDCP, which isn't all that unexpected in and of itself; the problem comes in when you realize that the new unibody machines don't offer a VGA / VGA-to-component output, meaning that you have to connect it to an HDCP-compliant display if you want to see anything. We know, one word in particular keeps coming to mind to describe this fiasco:
awesome.
