How bizarre! They provide a monitor port with the wrong connector for a monitor?


How do they know what connector the OP's monitor has ?

The standards keep on changing. Last century monitors used VGA. This century monitors used DVI and now DisplayPort/Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt.

Putting all those connectors on a MacBook would make it too big/heavy/ugly. But you can pretty much get any one you like with the relevant adaptor.



Err? Never seen a monitor(or a win' laptop come to that) that did not have a VGA port? Get 'em on tellies a lot now too. I use two TVs as monitors.

Dave.


VGA ports are too ugly for the sleek lines of an Apple product I'm afraid. You will have to stick to the bleak landscape of black plastic for that.
