In response to some queries:

	For information about the Interview 7700 Turbo bench analyzer:

		Atlantic Research
		7401 Boston Boulevard
		Springfield, VA 22153
		800/368-3261
		Fax: 703/644-9011
	
	For info about the Tektronix TC 1000 portable protocol analyzer:

		Tektronix
		205 Ravendale Drive
		Mountain View, CA 94043
		1-800-826-8675

(I think every unit I've seen is advertized as portable: they have handles.
But all require line power. The practical difference is the TC 1000 weighs
less than 10 pounds. The Interview 7700 weighs 27 pounds, and the HP 4954A,
Tekelek Chameleon 8000, and last Idacom box I used were 40+ pounds. The Hard
Engineering analyzer -- I don't have a contact, sorry -- is truly portable,
at barely two pounds, but still needs line power. General Datacomm makes a
very small blue-plastic battery-powered portable with an LCD display, but it
is in a class by itself for limited functionality and bad price/performance.
What makes the Hard Engineering analyzer so valuable for field work is that
all you need for remote operations is a dumb terminal -- not even a VT-100.)
