HDMI on all laptops

650 points posted to Inspiron products, Monitors and Displays by blackkitty 06/27/07

I would like to see all Inspiron laptops have HDMI connectors standard, or at a minimum make it an option on the 17" screen version.

I don't recall HDMI having advantage over DVI-D. The only "benefit" is DRM support.

Therefore, laptops should stick with DVI or D-SUB.

HDMI is ok for older appliances. DisplayPort is going to replace it soon. Have a look at http://www.ideastorm.com/article/show/10077942/Use_DisplayPort_everywhere_dro... and read Dell position at http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2008/02/19/46464.aspx< earlier we get laptops with DisplayPort, the less we will spend on adaptors ;)
