OK so if I understand, there is no precise rule of how many serial and parallel ports I can get under DOS, the best thing to do is to try!?

At the present time I already use a PCI card with moschip which gives serial and parallel ports at adresses like E000 or E400. It seems to work well so I will just try to put more PCI-cards!

I'll try to give a feedback if I find something interesting.
