I am using the Internet Router in a similar case:
2 PCs with Ethernet connected to a MacIIsi with Ethernet and 
LaserWriter on LocalTalk. If you run the Router on the Mac
it will produce 2 zones (EtherTalk + LocalTalk) which can be
seen by everybody on the net. It does much the same than a
Gatorbox BUT it runs in the background on your Mac which serves as
gateway. Thus don't expect to do a lot of network transfers AND
be a poweruser of your Mac. If you're only dealing with printing
(as I do) it runs pretty fine with much less costs than a Gator
or Kinetics.
Bernd.
