[WEB4LIB] Alternative to UnipriNT

[TMGB]

In an electronic Newsletter I receive from Executive Software, makers of
diskeeper an NT Defrag utility, they reviewed a print queue manager I
was not familiar with called ... Print Queue Manger (How ingenious :^)
).  It seems that this product has been out for at least 6 monthes.  You
can download a 30 day demo at 

http://www.sunbelt-software.com/pqm.htm 

  The description and screen shots look good.  I am getting ready to
download it myself.  Their web page took some time to load(lots of
graphics on one long page), I hope this is not an indication of their
program design.  This is an NT product.  It does start at about $1000
but this is somewhat below UniprNT.
