In the curent Radio Shack catalog there is a DMM with RS-232 output. I have one similar to this and have had it working with a mac by wiring the cable differently. You would need two of these for two channels. This would use up both serial ports on the mac. The DMM I have is 4.5 digits and cost about $110. Mine came with software for an ibm pc clone. You can aquire data with a communications program or write your own.
