Although possibly a misunderstanding of DVI, since there's nothing
non-analogue about it.  DVI-I which is what the port will be on the card
supports both analogue and digital signals.  DVI-D is the digital part, and
DVI-A the analogue part.  One could expect (although I'm not certain this will
hold) that the DSUB connectors and cables will disappear entirely.
