DisplayPort is in trouble due to HDMI.org's determination than it violates the license to use HDMI technology so DisplayPort to HDMI adapter cables are being recalled. All peripherals these days use HDMI naturally, so why not naturally have an HDMI port on your laptop? It makes sense and takes up almost no room. Even a mini-HDMI port would be sufficient which takes up even less room, a few centimeters...

Where are you buying your monitors? You have monitors with VGA (seriously out-dated), DVI (still okay), and DisplayPort connectors but none have HDMI? Either that's your fault for exclusively buying monitors from a company that refuses to include HDMI or you're a little dense for buying something with only a VGA port on it. This isn't 1997 man...

And if you're that much of a VGA or DVI fanboy, HDMI to VGA and HDMI to DVI adapters exist, just like DisplayPort to HDMI adapter cables.. Only difference is that the HDMI adapter cables aren't being recalled like the Display Port adapter cables.
