Thanks for the news iPC. It's been well known that the cinema display and the iMac target display mode work on the older 4890 cards without any problems, but the same thing isn't true of the 5870 unfortunately.
Still though, enjoy the 24" Cinema Display... it's a really nice screen. I lusted for one for several months when I saw that the refurbs were going for $599.
I predict that you'll be seeing a 27" version of that screen hopefully in Q1 2010 since I've got to say that a really prefer the 27" iMac at 2560x1440 over my 30" Dell at 2560x1600. The 16:9 Aspect ratio just seems better than 16:10 when you get into crazy sized displays.
