    I recently bought a refurbished laptop, and a large part of the reason I got it was for presentations, HDMI was a must have feature for me.

    I imagine any enterprise laptop would be similar, if you can’t hook it up to the projector, why bother?

      Well, if you use such legacy style of connection to projector, I may agree, if it was not that easy to upgrade the cable to have a c to hdmi adapter mounted all the time.

      I connect wireless to my projectors, like, everywhere.

        Homie, the non profit club we’re renting a room from isn’t going to buy a new projector just because I think HDMI is beneath my dignity.

        Projectors have a long lifespan, and don’t tend to be replaced until they actually fail.

        Besides, HDMI can transfer up to 48 gigabit/sec, so it’s actually faster than anything but the very latest standard of USB.

          Lol, you do not need a no projector, just a hdmi to c dongle on the hdmi cable that is already there -> 5 to 20 dollars

          And if it is that old, it will not need 48gb/s or do you have 8k 120hz?? (This would be veeeery expensive)
