If your computer has this port, you should just chuck it and get a new one. 10+ year old computers are no fun.

Remember this one?

I have a 1 year old laptop with a VGA port.

The most awesome port for video ever made. Period.

this one was great but was obsoleted too quickly

2016 mobos still have it though. GPUs not but mobos do. Not a dead port.

Also shit OP thread, one phone refuses to use it and now it's "dead"

My Dell from 2013 has one.

...

This port was popular for like 6 months before all manufacturers moved to the smaller one. I'm still stuck with a camera that uses this shit. Cables are impossible to find in stores and online they're like $10. Ridiculous.

...

that shit port is still popular with printers because they're hard to find so all those jews at Best Buy can sell you a 50cent cable for $20.

at least i hope it is

Anyone seen this one from few years ago? It's when ThnikPad chinks tried to jew their suckers (I mean, their customers) out of even more shekels by using a shit port on a tablet.

Rot in hell

...

nahh, that one still has legs. It's digital so it's not as shit as VGA.

Does your mobo still come with a PS/2 port for keyboard? If it does, just fucking trash it.

That looks like a regular Micro USB 3.0 to me.
It's fully backwards compatible to Micro USB 2.0.

what kinda connector u want senpai

...

PS/2 is better than USB.

Nigger $200 motherboards still come with a ps2 for keyboards

What happened to this one?

>PS/2 port for keyboard
Mine does, it's a Intel, it's from 2016, it probably cost more than you'reare entire build.
Also, polling vs interrupting.

These are still relevant

This old thing is almost deprecated

>>>/csg/

relevant when you have the usb adapter for it

Just move on already.

If your computer has any of these, it's time to upgrade that 10 year old chunk of shit.

Parallel port

Modern motherboards still ship with a least a keyboard port.

>Parallel port
Lenovo still sells laptops with that port. LMAO

Shill

>Modern
>PS/2
pick one and only one

no they don't

t. cisco shill

anyone remember these?

>one phone refuses to use it and now it's "dead"
Of the most innovative company known for setting the standards :^)

Face it, by 2019 at most it will literally be phased out.

These are the only items in this thread that are officially considered legacy, though parallel ports are still used for some specialist applications.

I dont think Ive ever actually seen a person use eSATA for eSATA.
It's just a silly looking USB port to most people.

Replaced by USB 3.0.

Who will win between hdmi and displayport?

I'm so glad they're gone.

everyone follows apple. apple killed floppy, they killed dvd and now they killed 3.5mm. thye also killed flash but that wasn't a port...

it's dead jim.

hdmi won long ago

Pic related. Remember when sound cards were responsible for joysticks?


Oh u.

Remember with burning hatred. For a while in the 90s I used them for LAN because I was too much of a noob to buy and install ethernet cards.

It was fine for two people playing Doom and Age of Empires, but trash for file transfer.

Kek, I have a microphone using it. Such trash, and hard to spot the difference from a distance when digging through the cable box.

Trash.

Trash.

At least you never had to mess with these day to day.

We're running out of these shitty 32bit addresses. NATs are terrible.
IPv4 IS legacy.

If things are going very badly PS/2 is often the only way you're able to get an input device working.

PS/2 still polls before the interrupt.

Nice bait.

why is this shit still around? it's the shittiest connector ever conceived and it's fucking HUGE compared to what it does and what alternatives look like

>USB-B
>hard to find

Looks more like a joke to me.

cheap ones are impossible to find at brick&mortar stores. they're called "printer cables" by idiots at stores and they cost $5/foot.

I still need these for various scientific devices - some modern laser controllers still use them. Who knows why though.

I cut myself so many times on that shit since they're impossible to separate. And one time I managed to pull out one of the prongs.

Total GARBAGE.

What do you mean?

1,99€

>brick&mortar stores

Pants-on-head retarded. Buy it online.

>My Dell from 2013 has one.
Jesus... that's fucking sad.

>10+ year old computers are no fun.
Pentium III still browses the web perfectly faggot.

$25 actually.
It's funny because employee price is 10% above cost of manufacture, and it's like 35 cents.

not online you retard. and not on auction sites. I forgive you for misunderstanding since you're a kraut or a muhammed.

It's a parallel port. Why would you put extra circuitry in a scientific device when you already have a computer with multiple IO.

Then just don't buy in shit stores. My local store also has cables for 10€ and 4g thermal paste for even more

TY! Yeah, it's fucking ridiculous pricing.

Even at Walmart they sell for ~$20. So if you need one urgently and can't wait & buy it online, you're out of $20.... for overpaying for a $0.50 worth of cable.

Fucking nuts.

Ok then, this is a physical store. Same price.

>poland
why are you even trying, 3rd world shithole netizen? can't you find some pollack/krautchan board to shitpost to?

AGP

That's a "DVI" port from manufacturers who want to fuck you extra hard.

different user, but tech prices in poland are the same as in every other country, sadly

also, the only relevant polish imageboard is karachan, which is a shithole

>apple killed floppy,
no

Why are you starting calling people names? I'm just pointing out that there's no way that in a working economy you could sell a usb cable for 25 dollars.

You can't press more than like 3 buttons at once with PS/2.

Mah Cisco escape sequence (Ctrl+Shift+6+x) doesn't work with PS/2.

check these out... how many have you handled?

Wasn't this what those really high res IBM monitors used, too?

>when he doesn't buy cables online

>when he expects people to know that 'Best Buy' is not an online store

yes that sucks dick, but old keyboards are sturdier than the chinese gaymer crap

>when he buys at Best Buy instead of online and then gets mad when he misunderstands posts online

lol applefag detected ... kill yourself! do it! you know you want to!

This. Fucking normies and their tvs. Shame I never got to use a DP.

These connectors were already 20 years old when the first PC was built anyway.

I have tons of cards for these and only GPUs for PCIe

VGA is the best video port ever made simply because it was everywhere. Still used everywhere in the business world.

>only GPUs for PCIe
a consumer's perspective

I had a couple of external USB3/ESATA drives. Cheap controller died so it was ESATA from that point forward. Works fine and is quick enough for most stuff.

I have like five of those. Ordered them for $1 each from china (dx). Why haven't you?

13w3

Dont know how many times my onboard video has saved my ass

I wouldn't buy a TV without scart desu

I saw these shipped with a dual VGA adapter. I'm sure they do support digital, I've just never seen a monitor that uses it. HP used these for some time.

...

Nah, I just like buying older cards

Thank god SCSI is dead
What a pain in the ass
