I was wondering if it is possible to plug in a notebook, via a
RS-232, for use as a terminal.  THe UNIX terminals here tend to have
messed up screens and sticky keyboards.  SO, can I just remove the
plug from the serial port of the terminal (a digital VT102), and put it
into my notebook?

If so, what software do I need to run as a terminal.

Thanks for the help.
