   I have both a R3000 indigo and a R4400 Indigo and I THOUGHT that the R4000 & the R4400 Indigos used a PS-2 mouse and keyboard but after I bought my R4400 I found that ALL of the connectors are EXACTLY the same as those on the R3000. The connector for the keyboard looks like a PS-2 connector but it isn't. There is no connector on the Indigo for the mouse. The mouse plugs into the keyboard. The mouse connector also looks like a PS-2 connector but again it isn't.
