btw, you can connect such serial dac's to the parport as well. you can even connect 8 of them at once, each with a dedicated data line, but all with shared control lines. that way you can update 8 dac outputs at the same time, without any delay between them. if you get the dac's as samples, this solution will cost you virtually nothing ;)
You can even make an ÃŒber cheap awful sounding 8 bit "soundcard" like that and drive it by sending 8 bit sample values directly to the parallel port.
Best,
