PC Magazine did a review on low-cost LANs and gave Lantastic fairly good
marks.  I think it was in the June issue, but I'm sure Artisoft will be 
happy to send you a reprint of it if you ask.  
 
I've seen it demo'd and have used it on another system enough to be putting
it into our office for a LAN that will have about 8 stations on it.  The
biggest recommendation I can make is to use as fast a PC as you can, and
to try to use 10mb Ethernet, the 2mb version tends to drag.
