    Then you have the graphics connector that I absolutely hate.

    DMS-59

    Look at the DVI-D Dual Link, that has 24 pins and a blade. DMS-59 uses the same size for the connector, but removes the blade and fits 59 tiny pins in the same space.

    It then uses a heavy and bulky splitter cable that puts strain on the connector. The splitter is then connected to two DVI or VGA connectors, adding even more weight and strain on the DMS-59 connector.

    It is an idiotic standard and made my love for DP grow strong. Especially once I learned about MST.
