What about some old DECServer 200MC's? MOP boot them and they should give
you 8x serial ports, or some multi-port stallion card with minicom
sessions that have separate config files pointing to various ttySx's?

The cheapest commercial ones I've ever seen out there are about $80 and
from a company called Sena. Google for "LS100 Sena".
You might find a better deal on E-Bay for a Lantronix box or a Portmaster
25 box for considerably less.

thanks!
I've been looking for ways to set this up with virtual comm ports on a unix
box, too : ) (there seems to be a payware Windows solution for this as
well).
