I've used Wilco's products for a number of years, as they specifically
support HP3K spooler protocol (i.e. status checking, etc.)  These folks
are great to work with and offer a number of different configurations.
They are located in Florida @ 407/770-9966.

As a matter of fact, the building I'm in was recently hit by a lightening
strike 2 offices away from mine.  Apparently the voltage surge came in
through the neutral and took-out a couple of statmuxes, the com ports on
3 PCs, 2 modems and my LJIII :( , but didn't affect the internal Wilco card
in the LJ!  :)  Who'd figure...
