- After some searching, I have been unable to find such a beast.
-
- There is one board that will use IRQ9, but that is all.
-
- I am now looking at intellegent serial devices. They cost a lot more,
- but may also reduce CPU load, thus improving system throughput.

- First one I inquired about was the Hayes ESP. Exactly what I
- want....except that Hayes does not yet support OS/2 2.0 for this
- product, and does not have a date for 2.0 support, and does not
- reccomend using the OS/2 1.3 drivers with OS/2 2.0.
