Does it look like this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processor_Direct_Slot
no sorry it looks like a pci card but the bottom of it is cut differently
also what ports does it have use a someport (com or serial) to ethernet adapter
Nothing really useful. It's got a heap of mini DIN-style ports for ancient mac printers and modems [kind of like ps2], and it's got a db25 SCSI port. If it did have an rs-232 I wouldn't have any problems at all- it's not like null modems are expensive these days.
if it isn't ISA [but I imagine it would be], it could be PCI-X. High end computer companies usually only sell 64-bit PCI cards, which have an extra bit, kind of like AGP does, though they still fit in a PCI slot if you try. Some of them are really nice, too- I've seen several quad gigabit cards in an SGI unit a while back.
was put impeccably into words at DebianDay for me last Saturday, by Knut Yrvin of Trolltech - adults try something once, fail, and then are like "ffs this doesn't work". Children try, fail, and then try again, and succeed - maybe on the second, or even fifth retry. But the thing is that they keep at it and overcome the problems in the end.
