The Macenhancer (no kidding!) apparently multiplexes on of the serial ports into three serial and one parallel ports. Comes with Terminal emulation software and printer drivers. Available after Feb 15 for $249. Sounds like just the ticket for those who want two printers, a modem and a LAN all hooked up at once. The next page has an article with the headline "Apple's Lisa 7/7 scores highest in integrated micro software test". Oh, well.......
