Where to get cheap Data Acquistion Card

Data Acquistion Card

Hi all,
I'm trying to build a data acquisition system to monitor the ball bearing running temperature. I need a data acquisition card and of cousse a couple thermocouples to do that. I can get the thermocouples easily because they're not very expensive and available. But the decent data acquisition card for PC is very expensive (>$1200.00 or so for NI). Any body knows some reasonable DAQ card that I can buy or have one that I can buy from you.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Try the new usbdaq-225-18 in http://www.usb-daq-boards.com.

It samples 18 channels simultaneously at up to 225 khz sample rate.
The sampling resolution is 16 bit.
It it less expensive than the ni one.

The website **broken link removed** compares different data acquisition devices. You can set the specifications you want and get a list of daq devices.
