i have been using one of their old digiboard 8 port cards here
for years. at one point i had 2 of them to give me 18 serial ports
in one machine. the 8 port cards use a single irq so they won't
work with everything but ct does support them.
also note that i have developed an ethernet replacement for the
ct serial port network. this will free up 2 ports on most networked
pc's using ct's serial network. for more info on that send me e-mail
directly.
