Just a little more information about what I need -- I'm looking for
about 6 serial ports in total, so an 8-16 port RISC card is probably
overkill. A 4-port card would be fine assuming I can use it in
conjunction with my two motherboard ports (is this possible, for
instance, with the BOCA?). Also, I need to be able to use the ports for
dialins and dialouts, so I would need full modem signals on all the
ports (including RTS/CTS and CD). I understand this is not possible with
some or all of the cheap 4-port cards. Does anyone have hard data about
which ones?
