Sometimes you need to monitor a half dozen voltages or currents at
once. I'd love to do that with lab grade HP meters, each with a IEEE-488
interface, but they are over $2k each.

I'd rather I never met an IEEE-488 interface. :-( ...one off the
world's most stupid designs.

Regardless, it's quite workable and useful.
