Goodnight, Sweet VGA


Intel and AMD have agreed to phase our their support for VGA by 2013, and expect it to disappear completely by 2015. Sad news, but it had to happen sometime.

Although I can’t say I really even remember the last time I had to use a VGA port, I have fond memories of this venerable graphics standard. Let’s just have a moment of silence for all the 640×480 games, applications, and images out there. We’ll hold a proper wake when the poor thing is actually discontinued. Le sigh.
