Only the very newest moniters use HDMI (that ultra tiny port that also has audio connector pins in it). Mine doesn't, that's for sure, and even my new video cards are only that first "step up" from VGA cables (the slightly larger connector with the odd flat pin slots on one side).
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
