    VGA has outlived DVI… I can buy a new monitor with VGA and get a new VGA cable at almost any store … DVI is hard to find anything but a DVI to VGA adapter

          You’re entitled to that opinion. I don’t hate you for it. I would be lying to say I understood.

          DVI could operate in three modes, either DVI-A, which was basically just VGA adapted to the DVI connector, DVI-D, which is the primary digital mode, then there was dual link which doubled the bandwidth for the DVI digital mode, allowing higher resolutions and higher refresh rates.

          By comparison HDMI can only do a single digital link.

          DVI is great IMO.
