The standard was last revised in 2004: IEEE/IEC 60488-2-2004. If you have a working testing setup using many 488 based instruments you could port the setup to a modern computer and operating system. It could have originally been running on windows 2000 or older. Sometimes, the update to a new windows version could break the driver. Also, this would provide a path to maintain or update an existing testing setup which could combine the older legacy IEEE 488 stuff and equipment utilizing modern interfaces. Some of that old HP test equipment was built like a tank and also easy to repair and calibrate. Reply
