So far those USB to multiple serial port converters are very expensive!  But
its true that the USB to single parallel port is pretty reasonable.

But the $70.00 PCI Byterunner card will give you 2S/1P, which when added to
what you have on board will probably be enough.  Besides unless you have a
brand new computer you would also have to buy a USB card too!
