using standard com port addresses and use 4 IRQ's, and

another that's AST FourPort compatible and uses a selectable

block of addresses and a single IRQ. (Addresses and IRQ's

are set using <TT

If you're getting one of these cards, be sure to check

which standard it conforms to, prices are no indication.
