A very simple question: Where may I find an inexpensive multiple-serial
board for an AT-class machine. Drivers for 386/ix v2.0.1 are a must. Also,
it can't count on having "extra" interrupts (like 5) available. I'm not
too concerned about drop-dead performance, so "dumb" cards are okay.
I want to get at least four ports (total) going, and my spending target
is under $500.

I would like to collect mail in general about experiences with various
cards and drivers in this class. If you have opinions on the subject, 
please drop me a line and clue me in.

Thanks.
