Absent everything else, reading through the HP HIL technical document, 
it seems as if interfacing to other devices using a not-very-powerful 
MCU wouldn't be beyond the range of practicality.  15-bit async serial 
words, 5 volt logic--all seems to be pretty straightforward.

Is the reason that no one appears to be doing this because HP-HIL 
devices (and hosts) are relatively uncommon?
