Hi there. I recently bought a Datapoint 1800 terminal with the
idea that it had an RS-232c port. It didn't.  Or at least not 
a standard one.  What I am trying to find out is 
   a) What ARE the ports on back?
   b) Is there any way to convert to to a serial machine? 
      Or would I even want to bother with this?

   c) If this won't do serial, do you want to buy it? 

Thanks for any help,
-Remo
