| USB power from your VGA port Need an extra USB port to power some devices? Since he just needed power, and no data, he slapped together this quick adapter that pulls power from the vga port instead. While we’re not sure if this could possibly damage your video card if you pull too much power from it, we’re happy to see someone being original. That VGA port goes unused so often, this adapter might just make it a tad more useful. http://www.instructables.com/id/VGA_to_USB_power/
