I looked up Zero One Networking in Computer Shopper but they didn't have
this item advertised there, either. I did find a couple more phone numbers.
Phone: 714-693-0804 Fax: 714-693-0705
I also found a couple 4 port serial cards advertised by USA Electronics, Inc.
One is for DOS, with separate interrupts ($89.75), the other is multi-user
(Unix, Xenix, etc) ($149.75). Orders: 800-332-8434
I know nothing of these products, only stating what is advertised. :-)
Hope this helps someone,
