What hardware and software is required to allow a PC to record output from 
different scientific instruments?  I realize that this is a rather vague
description of what it is that is required, but this is all I myself have to 
go by.  Does this make sense?  Is this possible?

Are there any book(s) that I can refer to?  Is there any PD software available
that can be used to do this?  I will need very basic information.

Any help would be much appreciated.  Many thanks.
