On the left is what I have always called a flat head, needs the hole 
counter sunk in hard materials to end up flush. That one is a pointed 
sheet metal or wood screw style. They are available in threads that 
resemble B - E in the other picture.

On the right is a slight variation of E with a thinner head. Just came out 
of a hard drive from 1993 that some one gave me recently. Oh, I agree 
with others who posted that B & E are a 6-32 thread.
