Running out of modem/printer ports

A family friend I'm helping is trying to run two printers, a modem, and a Palm pilot on only two ports. (At the moment, she has
to power off and physically switch devices)
Is there a "port multiplier" or a NuBus or PCI card that will give them extra ports?
Any advice is appreciated...
Thanks...

Go to ebay.com and search for "Macally". Then look over the listings for Port Expander. They're not made anymore, but there are some on ebay.
