multiport serial board info needed

[Dave Taylor {guest}]

We are looking for a board with good multi-screens.  Mscreen just doesn't cut
the mustard and if we can have everything done on the I/O board, then we can
save the extra CPU processing as well as memory.

We have been using Computone and Arnet.  Computone gave us problem with modems
and Arnet just doesn't seem to be keeping up with our needs.  At Spring Comdex
Arnet were TALKING about Simuliport, but nothing was definite.

Does anyone have anything postitive ornegative to say about the Consensys
Powerports/HD.  It allows for up to 8 multi-screens on any terminal as well
as other pretty impressive features.  We are about to lay out just over $4,000
for 64 ports and if you could save us from a $4,000 mistake we would REALLY
appreciate it!!

Grateful for any input
