Doesn't anyone proofread these things?
Here's what an Apple technical document said about a problem when "hot-swapping" an external display with one of the new MacBook Pro's:
"Issue or symptom
When hot-plugging an external display into your MacBook Pro, you may notice the external display occasionally stays dark, or the internal display of the MacBook Pro appears to flash or turn black.
Sometimes, when switching from an S-Video to a DVI connection, the internal display may appear black or display only the mouse cursor.
Products affected
-MacBook Pro (15-inch 2.4/2.2GHz)
-MacBook Pro (17-inch 2.4GHz)
Solution
1) Wait 5 seconds for the screen to automatically re-size or activate.
2) If this doesn't occur after 5 seconds, click on Detect Displays in the Displays pane of System Preferences.
3) If the internal (or external) display still doesn't re-size or activate, press the F7 key to turn on mirroring mode, or restart the computer."
Does anyone other than me find #2 hilariously funny?
