The round type are called DIN connectors. The flat type are called USB
connectors. USB is most common these days. They sent the wrong k/b and
mouse. Are there adapters in the box?
mini-DIN. Regular DIN describes the older PC keyboard (and cassette on
the original PCs) connectors.
So what is the difference between mini-DIN and PS/2?
PSD2 uses one of the variations of MiniDIN. S-Vid uses another
variation
BTW, one of the varieties of mini-DIN was used for S-video (which also
fell out too easily).
