      It’s a VGA connector, used for screens. You can still find them if you look hard enough.

          Cords. A box of chords would be a radio, or a box of sheet music.

        I think I have seen as many VGA cables as I did HDMI ones. I also have seen many people using adapters for the two standards. So I think they are still very common.

      It’s basically an analog version of an HDMI cable. Except no audio, only video.

      It’s like the yellow RCA cable, but for computer monitors instead of TVs

        Except it transmitted several times the resolution of an RCA cable
