From your sig:
Message from Earth: VGA has the 15 pin inverted trapezoid shape and DVI has
the elongated rectangle with blade shaped pins.
That 15 pin inverted trapezoid is called a D-sub (that describes that shape of
connector, its actually a high density D-sub 15 pin). your printer, serial
mice, and other things use "d-sub" connectors too.
Also, what is an elongated rectangle? seems to me, its still just a rectangle.
