Some time ago, I saw an ad for a SCSI adaptor that will add up to 8 serial
ports to your system. The same controller also had an option to add 2
Centronics parallel ports. It ad said that no additional software was need
to run the box. I wish I could tell you were I saw it. This look like this
would do the job for you if you can find the source. I think I saw this ad
in one of my trade rags that I get. You might try EDN, Electronics, or
ECN. Also look in the Sun Journal.
