I've never had any problems with VGA. It just works. If the display doesn't get detected then you just set whatever the maximum is.

You don't have to worry about HDCP and whether its single or dual link. You can hot swap VGA with no problems just by moving the cable. Once you start getting things that use HDCP then you need to reset things or get a HDCP compliant switch box.
