Speaking of GPIB, I saw one of these (or somesuch very similar) at my 
neighborly Chevy dealer when I needed to get a software update for my 
rear-view mirror on my Avalanche:

(beware of linewrapping)

It's a GPIB to USB interface, and works with Winders and maybe Linux.
As I own nothing that's GPIB that I know of, it was little more than a 
curiousity to me, but just in case others who do didn't know these exist... ;-)
