             Does anyone have any experience with GPIB (IEEE 488) interfaces 
             for Apollo? (2000/3000 series)  Does the National Instruments PC2A or PC3 
             work? 

Since the 3000's and up have the AT bus, shouldnt one be able to plug in
any IEEE488 card for the IBM/AT and proceed?

Incidentally, I know that Perkin Elmer uses Apollo's to control some of their
ESCA spectrometers, and I remember seeing a GPIB bus in the setup. You might
try calling them....
