I've seen DF19 and DG23, which makes sense. Originally there were the

Or, is it correct to refer to anything between DA and DB as "DB"??
(such as "DB-23" on Amiga? Yes, I dremeled a DB25 to fit.)
Atari ST also used strange shell/pin count connectors. Calling them DB
is obviously not correct--calling them DB-ish might be closer to fact.
FWIW, they're pretty hard to find nowadays.
