This is amazing. "A computer" isn't necessarily a DTE, not even in the
PC world you refer to (I guess). 
I've checked all dumb and intelligent cards that I have access to:
- "dumb" serial PC card is DTE (but in most cases nowadays changable to
  DCE by jumpers)
- ACE is wired as DCE
- Chase AT4 is wired as DCE
- Specialix 8 port is wired as DCE

By the way: my modem is wired as DTE (bad world, isn't it ? :-)
