Err, where do you connect the EPROM programmer, the IC tester, the cable
wirelister, the GAL programmer, the serial link to the PDP11, the
GPIB-interfaced instruemtns [1], the HP calculator, and various other
things that generally get hung off my PC ?
[1] Does a USB-GPIB interface exist? I assume it must do, but I've not
seen one (I've not seriously looked either, my GPIB stuff is generally
controller by HP hosts [2])
[2] I've managed to find the HPIB interface for the 9830. A load of TTL
