Re: Serial switch box (9-way) with sensible gender connectors sought

Hi Jim
[Except that I'm also using the laptop with a docking station which
will accept a PCI card]. Are there any cheap PCI serial cards out
there these days?

Plenty. DABS have listed a six port 16550-compatible PCI card at £12.76+VAT.

Thanks, that's useful

[snip other good stuff]

Yes, this is part of why I want real serial ports with 16550 chips on
them!

Cheers
