I tried to explain these ports to a salesperson at micro center, and they have me the dull cow stare.

lol PS/2 ports are the newer ones. There were larger AT ports and ADB ports in addition to the 25-pin(!) LPT port (printer mostly) and COM ports (random peripherals including early mice, pre ps/2)

In my day, the RJ-11 jack was for connecting the keyboard, not the phone line.

The computer mouse I still use today has a ball in it

The time of the classic "Keyboard missing. Press F1 to continue."

Old enough

Look at you with your fancy ps/2 keyboard port. Where's my AT port and 9 pin serial mouse.

Fairly certain my first computer used something like this for the keyboard. I did not have a mouse.

if I remember correctly my first PC had the bigger DIN connector for the keyboard and a DSUB9 for the mouse. Guess I'm old ;)

These aren't old. I had one in the early 2010s, it was handed down by a relative because my parents were poor.

I'm Gen Z

PS/2

No, not the PlayStation.....

"how old are you?"

I'm fine., thanks.

I'm this old.

Back in my day they weren't color coded.

Oh I first learned to type by typing "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogs" over and over on a wireless keyboard.

Called a typewriter.
