How about the MicroMint programmer? we had one at udel and it
worked ok. Cheap, too.
What about a PC-bus programmer, write your own driver and become a VAR? 
Then you don't have to be in the hardware biz, which can be a real plus ...

Look at the Stallion card from Anvil, or any of the other good smart 
serial cards. Plugs into the AT bus. Reduces your problem to one of 
write a good ADOS driver. Just depends on whether you want to be dealing
with all the hardware hassles. Also, your turnaround is better. The 
multiport AT cards are really pretty good nowadays ...
The stallion could really source and sink rs232 FAST.
