Comtrol make several inexpensive 4, 8 and 16 port 16450/16550 (your pick)
based boards in their "Hostess Series". The 4 port board works with the
"sio" driver (I have 4 boards). The 8 port should work with out any
problems it just has more ports. The 16 port should work but it has
16552 UART I have not personally tested it.
