	Someone mentioned that they had a driver that would make led's
hung off the parallel port do useful things (like indicate network
activity) ... maybe they could be use to moniter the interupt
activity.  If this were too fast, then maybe it would be possible to
use a second machine to monitor this process.

	If I remember correctly, on of my old dot-matrix printers
could be 'convinced' to print a hex dump of it's input.  This might be
a useful way to monitor things...

Dave.
