I am interested in finding out about a product called a Buffalo 
Box SL 256.  I have a need to share peripheral devices with 
multiple computers and this is the product that a local company 
recommended.  I would be interested in getting a response to any 
of the following questions. 
 
Has anyone used one of these?   
Are they worth the service that they provide?   
Where is an inexpensive place to get them and how much should 
they cost?  
Does the 256 K spooler really free up the computer to continue 
       working faster than simply hooking up to a printer? 
Any other comments? 
 
 
Thank you for your help.
