	UPGRADED STANDARD BOOSTS SPEED OF IEEE 488 INSTRUMENT BUSES EIGHTFOLD
		The revised standard, IEEE 488.1-2003, "Standard for Higher Performance Protocol for the Standard Digital Interface for Programmable Instrumentation," addresses the operation of the IEEE 488 bus or General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB), which has been in use for over 25 years and is built into millions of instruments worldwide.
		In addition, existing IEEE 488 instruments are fully compatible with the revised standard but cannot take advantage of the higher data transfer rates.
		IEEE 488 and 488.1 are trademarks of the IEEE.

	IEEE-488 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1978 the bus was standardized by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers as the IEEE Standard Digital Interface for Programmable Instrumentation, IEEE-488-1978 (now 488.1).
		IEEE-488 allows up to 15 intelligent devices to share a single bus by daisy-chaining, with the slowest device participating in the control and data transfer handshakes to determine the speed of the transaction.
		In June 1987 the IEEE approved a revised standard for programmable instruments called IEEE-488-1987 (now 488.2): Codes, Formats, Protocols, and Common Commands.

	R. Canik Response to HP PR
		High-speed 488 is now a field proven technology with six of those companies shipping compatible instruments with no reported incompatibilities or problems.
		To maintain objectivity, IEEE does not consist of company memberships - it is a professional organization made up of individuals so standardization activities can be carried out on technical merit and without bias or political motivations.
		The future of IEEE 488 should not be dictated by the agenda of an individual company nor should we abandon IEEE 488 as HP alludes.
