I have a question about where to plug in my Headsets that i'm going to purchase because i just downloaded Skype so i can talk with others online. So i have 2 USB Ports on the back of my computer where my Keyboard plug's in one slot and my Mouse plug's in the other slot.
So when i recieve my Headsets where will i plug it in ? Will i remove either the Keyboard or Mouse USB and plug my Headsets in one of those two places?

Are you sure your headphones will be USB?
Is there not a specific port for a headphone jack?
If you have to use USB and only have the two USB ports available, buy a USB hub to add more ports.
Cheap and easy.

O.K. i think i'm figuring out what's going on. When i bought my Dell computer (Monitor) i purchased it used but the Keyboard and Mouse are the ''Logtech'' brand so i wonder if the original Dell Keyboard and Mouse plugged into the circular slots just above the 2 USB Slots.

Is this making any sense ?
Are the circular ports green and purple? Those are ps2 slots for keyboard and mouse so you are probably correct.

They sure are purple and green . So then i guess either i can purchase a Dell keyboard and mouse to free up the two USB slots or purchase a USB Hub like Mike J stated correct?

Doesn't have to be Dell brand. ps2 is a standard so lots of companies have manufactured ps2 keyboards and mice.
The USB hub would be pretty useful and I bet you will have a hard time outright purchasing ps2 keyboard/mice unless you have some sort of second hand antique store that occasionally gets computer parts. Maybe a local mom and pop shop would have some ps2 stuff they would just give you.
Or you could buy USB to PS2 adapters....which just feels wrong to me.
