I'm trying to find a NuBus card for the Mac II that offers multiple
serial ports.  It seems that SuperMac's Comm card no longer exists.
Is this true?

When you install a card to provide multiple serial ports, how does
the computer handle the extra ports?  Does it need to convince the
software that it's talking to the modem or printer port?  Is there
software available that knows how to handle extra ports?  Am I
babbling? :-)
