Why don't some of you who deal with HP-IB professionally come up with
some high powered software for the hardware which already exists? 

ASDG has been shipping a Twin-X based GPIB solution for about a year 
now. The GPIB hardware is fully compliant with the latest specifications.

If cost is an issue, I might point you towards the example of the SBX-Serial/2.
This was a Twin-X based multiple serial port solution which has been availble
(also) for about a year. Just recently we introduced the Dual Serial Board
which comes in at half or less than the price of the Twin-X based solution.
In other words, it is quite reasonalble to expect that any Twin-X based
product which proves itself to be commercially viable can be made into a
dedicated board utilizing the same software at a higher performance and
lower cost.
