Just for reference, the Sony Tektronix 308 logic analyser reads HP signatures. It's small, also does logic analysis :-) and often available for a lot less than HP signature analysers.

Re: Plug in surge question
Don't use a Variac on modern equipment with switchmode power supplies.
They are constant power so draw more current with lower voltage.
