Keeping up with 19200 baud

This is not my field of expertise, but I believe that the Mac's built-in
serial ports can't begin to cope with 19.2kbps because they get an interrupt
for every byte. If so, either your statistics are wrong, or you're using a
serial card.

So: Am I wrong? If not, are you? If not, what card are you using?
