    Oh no, please not another port. It’s gonna be 50% harder to deliver a presentation now with all those adapters.

    Jokes aside, I agree with the other commenter. This is not really useful except for real power users or investors. HDMI is still here to stay for a long time.

    That’s cool for people who work with video professionally, and it’s double cool that China is making its own standards, but for me personally it’s going to be a very long time before this is practical. I don’t have a TV and i’m not planning on getting one, and as for gaming at 8K, that’s just insanity. I don’t even have a 4K monitor because the kind of graphics card required to run anything modern at that kind of resolution is still insanely expensive. Imagine the kind of graphics card you’ll need for 8K… It’ll probably cost more than my car. And streaming videos at that resolution? Forget about it, not with the DSL level internet speeds that we still have where i live. Our internet infrastructure is still in the stone age compared to countries like China.
