I'll probably get some flames for this, but since I work for the Logic
Analyzer Division at Tektronix, I just had to tell you that you can get
a stand-alone analyzer from Tek for only $2995.  That _is_ probably more
expensive than most PC-based LAs, but it won't tie up your PC while
waiting for a trigger.  In addition it's expandable from the built-in
16 channels to 64 channels, offers a long list of microprocessor probes,
and comes with high-quality grabber tips.  The model is the 1230. It's
a 100Mhz analyzer (samples at 10ns maximum rate) with glitch capture
and glitch triggering. If you'd like, I'd be happy to send you some info.
