I'd planned on a simple interface to the PC via using the parallel, suitably strapped, as a basic output port. Now, I could use it as an input but I'd probably have to poll the port which would be somewhat inefficient but an option I guess. Think I could just record the staring time of the sampling and then the ending time plus the number of cycles.
