I just got a PCI card that has 2 com ports on it called a "Multi I/O Card
221N-2" made by "NetMos".  You can also get em with 1 com port and 2 com &
LPT.  The only down side is that the new com ports are Com 5 and Com 6 not 3
& 4.  So not all software will go past Com 4, but beyond that it works fine.
