Yes, that's what I meant. I didn't think I needed to explain
GPIB to this crowd. On the other hand, I don't remember ASDG
demo-ing any particular application when they shipped it.

ASDG was a mile or two from my apartment in Madison at the
time. I remember seeing the iSBX-based cards they tried at
that time.
