If you're asking if you can use a regular DVI to VGA adapter on the 2x DVI ports then yes, they're backwards compatible (that's part of the DVI spec actually). As for a Displayport to VGA... Haven't seen one yet, and it would probably involve some sort of D2A (digital to analog) converter since AFAIK Displayport has no native analog compatibility.
