Well if you are wiring up your new TERMINAL and you have the standard
in front of you with a page that says data TERMINAL equipment then
you'd have to be pretty bloody minded to be different :-)
I would agree, which is why I am puzzled that the OP was wondering if his
terminal was a DTE ora DCE.
You'd also have interoperability issues (as you would with modems, no?)
Having said that, someone must have done it just to be contrary :-)
I'd be interested to know who....
