Richard,
    We use an Agilent 34970A data aquisition unit with three 34901A 20 channel 
mux modules fitted. This is not a PC card but a rack and stack instrument about 
the size of a bench DVM that connects to the PC via a serial cable. It also 
comes with the software. Very similar to the fluke hydra II.
This has proven to be an excellent instrument and well worth the investment. 
Most other equipment of the same price could only offer around 10 channels of 
measurement whereas this allows up to 60. It is also modular so you only need 
buy as many 20 channel mux modules as you need.
Regards,
    Duncan

I do any monitoring any temp testing with a Fluke Hydra II and 
associated PC software. Set up and define probes, start software, 
dump into an Excel spreadsheet or report.  Communication between 
the Fluke and the PC is done through serial ports.  - Doug McKean
