Digital projector? Where is that VGA adapter… Cinema display at work? Where is that DVI adapter… Why the hell do I have to have an adapter for both in the first place? I should be able to plug into SOMETHING without an adapter. Not to mention each adapter is $30.

What’s that? The new LED Cinema displays hook up to my laptop with no adapter, power the laptop and provide a USB hub? That’s great but that is one display. Name one more…

That’s what I thought.

friggin update: Older Apple Cinema display has crappy obscure DVI plug with rounded corners. Even with an adapter for DVI, my laptop can’t plug into this display without an additional adapter. One day, I won’t need these computers. I’ll just think internet and it’ll happen.
