I have developed an 8051 based microcontroller board that can execute 
complicated IEEE-488 command structures with ease.  As designed,  this board 
could be placed between your computer serial port or parallel port and the 
IEEE printers.  The parts cost of the design wirewrapped is approx. $125.
(If you are good with the bus interface for your computer the schematics
could be fairly easily modified to sit on the bus.)
I have put all the info from my design into a packet (including monitor 
and example routines).  I will send this to those interested for $10
to cover postage, copying, and disk (there is no profit in this for me).

Also,  I would be interested in a joint development to put this project on
a printed circuit board.  Some type of arrangement like splitting
development costs.
