The IEEE-488 port on the OSBORNE EXECUTIVE can be configured via a PIA
chip to communicate using the CENTRONICS or IEEE protocol to talk to
devices connected on that port.  If you plan on doing any serious
hardware hacking using it I would highly recommend the five manual
Technical Reference set.  They contain BIOS and ROM listings for V1.1 as
well as tutorials on the schematics and chip sets.  The price is steep
however.  $125 + $18 (S&H).
