No, that is what a PS/2 mouse is, a 6pin mini-DIN connection. This person 
is using a Dell which come standard with ps/2 ports for the mice, by 
saying that he was using a 2 button Microsoft mouse, he was implying that 
it was just that, and a ps/2 connection. I SERIOUSLY doubt that it is 
serial or bus.
