    Now that it has been confirmed that there will not be those ports, I think Dell screwed up in this part. At this age, taking a step back by removing the DVI port is .....stupid

    On business laptops VGA is still a must. Mostly because of beamers using a VGA port. Maybe dell with have a docking station with a DVI port?

    Inspiron is NOT a business laptop. It's Latitude or the new Vostro.
