What is a VGA port for and what are the benefits from it?
VGA is the successor to the EGA port. The VGA port used to be the only way to hook up monitors to a computer. It was only recently, the past 5 years or so, that digital flat panels have overtaken CRT monitors completely. The digital panels can use the successor to VGA, the DVI port. Many digital flat screen panels (and lots of flat screen TV's) still have a VGA input connector available as one of two or three different computer inputs.

How do you use an HDMI to VGA cable from MacBook Pro to Asus monitor with only VGA port?
See if you have only VGA port on the ASUS Monitor then you need to plugin the VGA part of HDMI to VGA in Asus Monitor and then plug the other part that is HDMI in your Macbook pro.There might be a problem with you that both Asus monitor and the HDMI to VGA cable have same VGA Plugs,Like both of them are female VGA or both of them are Male VGA hence they cannot be connected together.For that problem you need to have one more cable of the opposite character to that of your HDMI to VGA and your monitor's VGA port to establish a connection between the Monitor and Macbook pro using the cable you already have. Like if you have female VGA on your monitor and on your existing cable then you need to buy male to male VGA and vice versa you have to buy female to female VGA for male ports on monitor and cable you already have. If you feel that there is some other problem than that then you can message me directly and i will guide you accordingly.
What are some reasons for calling a parallel port a female port?
It is not called a female port. For every cable, there is a male, and a female. These cables are the opposites of each other so they can connect to one another. This is example of a male cable: http://images.Asia.ru/img/alibaba/photo/51732182/RS232_9_Pin_Male_to_9_Pin_Male_Cable.jpg Notice the extended prongs, this is the reason it is called male. This is a female cable: http://www.chinawholesalegift.com/pic/Electrical-Gifts/Computer-Hardware-Accessories/Cable-Adaptor/VGA-15Pin-Male-to-VGA-15Pin-Female-Cable-13281821289.jpg It contains slots to receive the prongs of the male cable so that they can interface. (please don't take this comment as a joke, they really are called male, and female.)

How do you connect a dell inspiron 1545 to a Panasonic lcd HDTV?
From what i beleive, almost all lcd hdtv's have a VGA port in the back. Get a VGA male to male wire and connect it to your laptops VGA port then to the TV. Then set your TV's display settings to VGA or PC. On the Dell there should be button on the keyboard same as f1 to change your display settings to TV. Set that to "duplicate" or "projector only" im not sure because i havent done it yet. (In case you dont know what a vga port looks like its the same thing you hook your desktop pc's monitor wire to. Its a rectangular shape with rounded corners and it has 15 little holes. Most of the time its blue.)
