    Kids nowadays don’t know about DVI, VGA, COM, Parallel or Gameport. I loved the days when one could accidentally remove the screw on the board side.

        When the engineers specifically design a connector to never disconnect accidentally, they shouldn’t be surprised by people who take it as a challenge.

          Design something sensible, then go over it again and redesign it with stupid and stubborn users in mind. Probably this is how things should go.
