    Maybe, but I could see thunderbolt replacing HDMI and display port over time. It can carry video, audio, data, and power simultaneously, and has more bandwidth for additional information like HDR or 3D.

      USB can do that as well, using Displayport alt mode. And it doesn’t need Intel’s fees.

      Also, 3D. LOL

        Same cable, same port, I don’t really care what it’s called if the capabilities are the same.

        3D is important for stuff like VR, there’s a reason it’s the predominant cable for headsets.
