Yippee, more updates to the corporate DRM cable that you shouldn't be using anyway!
i just had another hdmi cord fail yesterday! what a good design :/
Really? I've had more trouble with DisplayPort since I keep forgetting about the locking feature and bust the jacket off.
I honestly prefer HDMI cables, but I hate the closed nature of the HDMI standard.
They make display port cables without the locking feature. I don't have a link unfortunately but I have a few in my box of cables that I'm definitely going to use one day
Cool! Maybe I'll get some next time I break one.
I don't remember the last time I had a cable come out on accident, but I have definitely broken multiple DP jackets and getting those unlatched without looking is way too frustrating (way more annoying than guessing the orientation of the HDMI cable wrong).
