Regarding the following question:
---begin quote
I have one question on this--once the data is transferred to a PC (or Mac)
can it then be easily copied into EXCEL or some more sophisticated
data-analysis and graphing software?  This should depend on the format used
by TI-Link.
---end quote

Data that is collected by the CBL and sent to a TI-82 or TI-85, can be stored
as a list data type on the calculator.  You can use the TI-GRAPH LINK to send
the data to an IBM-compatible or Macintosh computer.  You can then use the
Utilities - Export to an ASCII File to get the data into a form a computer
software package can use.  The file for a short list will look something like
this:  //xStat          { 4 3 2.3 }
Excel, can import ASCII (text) data into a spreadsheet.  You could then run a
macro to strip off the extra characters.

We will be posting a more complete description of CBL in the next few days.
We will be happy to answer all your other questions then.
