I have a couple notebooks with PCMCIA (AKA PC Card) slots. A few years
back I got an NI card on eBay. Probably harder to find than a PCI card
and possibly more expensive, but it is one more option that should be
compatible with all the software. Doesn't need a full sized PC too.
It is one more option that wasn't mentioned, but slots are harder to
find on newer notebooks.

I have the Ethernet version. They're nice for quick and dirty stuff and the
USB / Ethernet versions can be used on laptops (Ethernet can be used on any
computer that can telnet across the wire). You get to write your own
software to use them or use EZGPIB (and write your own software).
Using a "real" NI GPIB interface means it works with everything out there,
including EZGPIB but you're greatly limited on hardware platforms. You're
stuck using a computer with a PCI bus unless you want to fork over the cash
for the NI USB or Ethernet interfaces for lots of money. I tend to use my
PCI-GPIB card and it was under $100 delivered from eBay.
