When will it finally die?

Not any time soon

New laptops barely come with any ports at all.

I dont see whats wrong with that formatted for a 15 pin cable.

It doesn't support HDCP so it's antisemitic

DVI is only acceptable alternative

Displayport cables/adapters don't seem to work for me unless you I get the premium overpriced brand.

HDMI standards are built around fucking you over for big media.

basically Old tech > New tech. VGA exist because it just werks.

new graphics cards and laptops barely supply this shit anymore so it's pretty much on life support mode already

Once there is a new standard that is 100% compatible and doesn't require an adapter or any other crap, then it will die. It will die happily, having done its job far better than anyone else for 30 years.

All Lenovo laptops that my company bought this and last year only have VGA outputs.

I hope never.

VGA is one of the last video signals that are easy to generate.
HDMI is hard as shit to generate, even with a huge FPGA, compared to VGA.

Same here, I think business will keep it alive

Work as well, why do you want to remove it ?

When KVM dies.

I mean, it's 31 year old technology that was perfected a long long time ago.

I still use the VGA port on my notebook to extend an extra screen.

Please don't remove.

Between spending money on reasonably paced upgrades or spending making old shit work, they will always try to make old shit work. Doesn't matter if making old stuff work costs more, they paid money for that ancient gear and they will drive the wheels off of it until they can no longer, economic sense be damned.

Got a brand new HP Probook from work. It has HDMI and VGA.
It's useful.

gpu past 980 don't support it but I think some onboard GFX still do.

It'll die when a proper alternative is developed.
only a raging cuck would consider using something like HDMI.

It's been under 'legacy' for years.

legacy, business, emerging markets.They will all still keep VGA alive and well. It's analog, everywhere, cheap, breaks out to RGB, can still do 1080p, and isn't proprietary like HDMI. besides Day 1 gaymin adopters, there are still MANY use use the connector world-wide.

I use this to connect raspberry pi to a very old monitor.

Even my brand new TV has this among with usual HDMI etc.

Where can I unsubscribe from your blog?

when mainboard manufacturers stop putting ports for it on their boards

Emulator+raspberry pi+retro box

Looks like never... my brand new Zbook 15 G4 has it...

Just use usb-c

ETEET? wtf bro

Soon
It's rare for laptops to have it, and I'm seeing TVs start to drop it. Monitors should follow soon.

But DVI and HDMI are compatible with each other.
Most DP adapters are actually passive adapters. They just use miniDP on the PC side because it's a nice small connector.

Same here. It just werks.

When boomers die

What ? Do you buy used computer ?
Where I work, it's our monitors. This shit only have VGA and DVI and all the new computers we receive only have DP or HDMI.

Where's the sound tho

My company replaced all those ports in the meeting rooms with appletv's.
They work great with our apple ecosystem (macbooks, iphones, ipads)

At my workplace, we remove projectors for TV since big one are not as expensive if you compare them to good projectors. The TV we got only have HDMI ports.

where's the sound in displayport, dumbass?

"DisplayPort can be used to transmit audio and video simultaneously, although each is optional and can be transmitted without the other. The video signal path can range from six to sixteen bits per color channel, and the audio path can have up to eight channels of 24-bit, 192 kHz PCM audio that is uncompressed."
