Don't forget the decade or so (late 1990's to early 2000's) where we were driving LCDs over analog links (VGA connectors).
I had purchased a pair of Silicon Graphics 1600SW monitors back in the day, which required a custom Number Nine graphics card with an OpenLDI display interface. It was many years since those were introduced to the market that DVI finally started becoming commonplace on PC graphics cards.
Using the mass-market LCD monitors in the late 1990's was a frustrating affair, where you had to manually adjust the timing synchronization of the analog signal.
