[ale] Why do they keep putting VGA on Netbooks?!?!

[Richard Bronosky]

You better get ready for it. All modern displays are digital devices.
Receiving VGA requires a A-D chipset which isn't cheap. They will stop
including those as soon as they believe they can. It's going to hit like
unlimited cellphone plans. Once one of them takes the plunge, the others
will follow.

Hi David,

I do hope that the monitor / projector makers won't leave us
(collectively) out in the cold having to buy thousands of "converters"
to attach our old equipment to new display devices. I haven't bought any
monitors or projectors very recently though. I think my Sony flat screen
has a VGA port on the back, as well as HDMI.

Sincerely,

Ron
