Why no HDMI cable?

Why is a VGA cable included with a new monitor but not a HDMI cable? The new laptops don't include VGA ports but do have HDMI ports

    It depends on the model of monitor. Sometimes they include the cable least likely to be already in your possession... :)

    There are a bunch of different GF276 models, there should be a bunch of letters after the series name. For instance a GF276 Abmipx has one VGA, one HDMI and one DP. It has speakers, supports AMD Free-Sync and comes with just the VGA cable. I think that's a Canadian model...
