Default Displayport vs VGA connector

Wonder if any of the latest Dell laptops have the new Displayport connector
vs the old VGA connector.
Was wondering this as all our A/V equip like projectors, Elmo overhead &
Smartboard
have the cable expecting a VGA connector on the laptop

You need a $30 adapter(Dell or others)
Be sure to get the tight size DP plug (Regular or Mini)
