Cheapest software for a 5890?

Hello, I'm working on setting up an old 5890 right now and am looking for some cheap (ha!) software. I am only analyzing for one compound (ethylene). I don't need any advanced data options, I only need to be able to see how much ethylene is in a sample.
I am debating a chart recorder, but I think a PC set-up would be much easier. I already have a PC with ISA ports and the HPIB boards are only like 50 bucks or so (i'm unsure about drivers for them).
Any help on how to set up the cheapest possible GC would be appreciated. Thanks.

Vox,
Third attempt to post is a charm.... Anyway.... Look on LabX or ebay for integrators. HP 3393 would do what you want but you would not have much flexibilty. Look on LabX (Chromatograph-Data System) for Baseline Chromtech data system for $500. Uses and A/D connected to a serial port to collect data. Requires a USB port for power. I have not tried it but it is the least expensive I have found so far specifically for chromatography.
Best regards, let me know how it goes.

Ask info©labicom.cz. Their software CSW was able to control several GCs.

dataApex CSW1.7/CSW32 software is no more produced nor supported, it was replaced by Clarity. Check our web pages
www.dataapex.com for available options and your local distributors -
Clarity Lite + A/D converter for analog data acquisition
Clarity + GC control (in case your GC has HP-IB/RS232 communication board) for GC control and digital data acquisition - serial communication is used, thus no HP-IB board is needed for PC
inexpensive chromatography software
