Has to be a spoof. The line "A Question of Prorities" has a
misspelling and the "contact us" link is for a gmail address. Plus
there is nothing but that main page. But it's fairly well done.

I bet it's real. If it were a spoof, it would be a bit
more ambitious!

This is interesting, as well:

My vote is that both businesses are real (but they have some pretty lame Web pages!).

When I see those sorts of sci-fi references for companies, they tend to mostly be for
software/tech companies. :-)

FYI, there's also a New Zealand musician named Chris Knox who I'd noticed used
"Harlington-Straker" as the name of his publishing company for his song writing in the
late-80s/early-90s.
