See the current issue of PC Magazine for a review of 4 or 5 of these
buggers.  They like a new one based on a custom (WD?) RISC processor.
I noted that this particular board does not need any downloading or
special driver.  It simply appears as an additional LPT: without
interfering with normal LJ use.  This is critical if you ever want
to use it in a Unix based server.

Not off hand, but you should check out Pacific Data Products for their
boards before buying HP.  When choosing between something like 1M or
1M+ boards, choose the 1M+ board because it is upgradeable.

Anyone who makes them specifically for the LJ.
