@hideki It's the "it's there so why change it" situation. Imagine a school or something, each classroom has a VGA projector. Now imagine a teacher got a new laptop without VGA port. Would you replace all the projectors or just get them one of those cheap HDMI to VGA adapters? Now a projector dies. You get a new one, it has HDMI as well as VGA. There's a VGA cable already installed. Are you gonna run a new HDMI cable or just plug the existing VGA in? 1/2

@hideki Eventually you have a bunch of HDMI projectors and laptops but they use adapters to communicate over VGA. It all works, so why change it.
