VGA connectors are cheap and don't require license fees like displayport and HDMI do.

HDMI requires a fee, but DisplayPort doesn't. Apple saw the light and realized that going open standards with no fee was the best way to achieve wide DisplayPort adoption.

Do they have display ports on TV’s and home theater systems?

My other laptop has the HDMI and will be given streaming media duty.
