Description
Laptop computers from the 2000s have ports aplenty, often including a 7-pin mini-DIN port, usually labelled with the pictogram of a TV, the letter S, and an arrow indicating it's an output. Here I demonstrate the purpose of this port, and document the adapters and breakout cables that may be necessary to use all of its capabilities.
