    I thought I'd never want analog component output but I've already been in a few situations with my M11x where I've wanted to use it (output to EDTVs and what-not). Does DisplayPort have the ability to carry analog video as well? IOW, is there a component output dongle available? I know some video cards used proprietary component dongles that connected to the VGA port. Does the M11x have anything like this?
