We have one of these boards for sale.

8 ports.  Driver versions 2.1.7, 2.4.2, 2.4.1, 2.5 beta.

It works.  Complete, with manual.  About 8-9 months old.

It is >not< perfect.  We have noted some strangeness with modems (it has
trouble supporting multiple Telebits).  Works great with terminals though.

First $750 takes it.  I'll pay shipping.
