As an old coot I had boxes of various cable, I gave most of them to local thrift stores. But I kept one of each, in case of, (black, white, short, long) AC power cable, a VGA, RCA, DVI, TOS, serial, S-VHS, etc
IN CASE OF!!! until next round :)
It feels weird that DVI is old now but it really is... I've got like, 2 old monitors that will still take it, everything is DP or HDMI now
Every so often I see new monitors with DVI support and I always wonder why
To work with the old-ass KVM nobody wants to pay $$$ to replace? That's all I can think of. DVI adapter chains get real janky real fast.
You won't need them until you part ways with the last one. Then you will need it within a week.
