I'd like to set up a cheesy little data acquisition system
for experimenting at work.  Basically, I want to be able
to log to a file at user configurable intervals voltages and
temperatures, and possibly to set up some sort of digital
trigger-on-action signal.

I'm thinking, build it around LabVIEW, get a GPIB
card for the PC so LabVIEW can talk to the snazzy
Tek scopes we have lying about, and get a LabVIEW
compatible digital IO module, multimeter, and temp
monitor.

Can anyone suggest solid, LabVIEW compatible products
for the temp, multimeter, and digital IO?  Cheap isn't bad
but it's not necessary- I suspect I could spend $4-5k on
this project fairly easily.

Also, suggestions on temp measurement are good- temps
are in the normal human range (not likely below 0C, not
likely above 50C.  RARELY I may want to go to 70-80C,
so that should be an option).  Sensors should be small
and remotely placeable- in the past I've connected
thermocouples to individual components within a circuit
to check temperature rises.
