What would the 3 RS232 ports be connected to? If you are referring to a low cost MCU development board that has three bi-directional RS232 ports, and allows you to practice RS232 communications with either C or assembly code and also has a series of output LED's for easy debug...then the answer is 'no' I don't know of any.

Additionally, any truly old PC would much more likely have two RS232 ports, not one.

An old PC has at least two RS-232 ports, and you can easily add another two. Having more then four COM ports on the old PC is possible although it is not as trivial. However you can get a newer PC and enjoy up to 16 USB to RS232 dongles. Vladimir Vassilevsky DSP and Mixed Signal Design Consultant http://www.abvolt.com
