    Trans Digital Parallel Interface PCMCIA Card - Driver software anymone?

    Unlikely, but ... finally this ends my waiting in front of my computer for a reply - I grew really hungry over time. Unfortunately I do not have this card anymore - I gave it away, as I was not able to find drivers for it. Martin

    Epson HC-20 / HX-20 - Scans of Japanese magazines?

    Recently, I learned that there were a few issuses of a Japanese Magazine "Oh!HC" which was obviously promoted by Epson. Unfortunately I was not able to find any scans of these issues. Do we have some Japanese readers in this Forum who could provide links or scans of these issues? Even if we...

    MuLisp Docs

    Thanks again - this Russian web site is interesting - too bad it is not available as a single document for download. They mention muLISP-81, -85 and -87. Embedded in the text, I also found archives of subsets of the muLISP-85 and muLISP-87 installation for download (on this page...

    MuLisp Docs

    Thank you for the helpful links. I would also be interested in later muLISP versions (muLISP-82 ... muLISP-87) because Soft Warehouse changed many of the built-in keywords/functions and extended the number of functions considerably. They seem to have moved closer to "standard" LISP...

    MuLisp Docs

    Resurrecting this old thread... as it has become easier to scan documentation. Documentation for the early versions of muLISP and muMATH as well as for Derive for CP/M as well as for MS-DOS still seems to be missing from the usual archive sites (like bitsavers, archive,org). Maybe someone...

    PC BIOS function int 21, 48

    ... and it is a MS-DOS function, not a BIOS function ;-) Your code will also run on non IBM-PC compatibles with the proper MS-DOS version.

    HP 110 and HP Portable Plus Software and ROMs - survey

    Several software products had been available for the HP 110 and the HP Portable Plus. Some of them came on floppy disks and some in (EP)ROMs. A few are available for example on hpmuseum.net or on www.jeffcalc.hp41.eu. However, there are still many programs missing. While many generic MS-DOS...

    Has anyone used this LPT2USB adapter to connect a vintage PC to a modern HP inkjet?

    You might also try to use the MS-DOS command SHARE after making the USB printer into a network printer. See https://superuser.com/questions/182655/how-do-i-simulate-a-parallel-lpt-printer-with-a-usb-printer

    150 machines from France

    According to the internet HP has about 1000 employees in France and 550 of them in Grenoble (97% of them engineers or managers). The rest is located in Paris/Meudon. What they actually do today ... I don't know.

    hp-150 question

    On the HP-150 "no display" and "no beep" often means a broken video board which is tedious to diagnose and fix. Additionally, there are two standard battery cells on the video board which leak when not removed and they may destroy more. The keyboard (46010) is not so easy to find - it is no...

    Wordstar for HP 150?

    During the last days I tried to run Wordstar on my HP 150. A disk image of Wordstar 3.3B, adapted for the HP 150 is available on the HP Museum web site. They also show a screenshot of the installer, which looks as it should. Unfortuantely they don't show a screenshot of the main program. The...

    HP's UCSD Pascal for MS-DOS?

    Thank you for looking - this is still a mystery. It is hard to believe, that HP would roll their own Pascal development system for the MS-DOS systems and not offer it for sale. Or at least write something about it in their Journal. I am well aware of HP Pascal for HP 9000 systems. Pascal...

    HP's UCSD Pascal for MS-DOS?

    I am trying to identify a Version of Pascal for MS-DOS. It seems to be a variant of UCSD Pascal, but I am not sure. Maybe the following details ring a bell somewhere... HP obviously used this system to develop software for the HP 150 as well as for the HP Vectra - MS-DOS 2.x and 3.x systems...

    HP Portable Plus (Model 45711) - home-brew expansion drawers?

    For additional information and some EPROM images you might also want to look at Jeff's web pages. An (EP)ROM drawer should be installed in your machine - usually the system came with one RAM and one ROM drawer. PS: The operating system supports up to 2 MB of RAM disk plus the 512 KB of main...

    HP Portable Plus (Model 45711) - home-brew expansion drawers?

    The Portable paper does not have much about hardware details or projects (except for a RAM expansion of the initial HP 110 (not Portable Plus)), but 3rd party products were advertized, including RAM drawers. The magazine has some very useful programming examples for screen or HP-IL access...

    HP Portable Plus (Model 45711) - home-brew expansion drawers?

    HP also provided a 1 MB RAM drawer 82992A (see https://hpmuseum.net/display_item.php?hw=925)and some 3rd party companies offered, as far as I know, up to 4 MB drawers. A very good source of information was/is Hal Goldsteins Portable Paper. I am not aware of any published home-brew RAM...

    Western Europe [ URGENT ] -- BIG IRON RESCUE in Hamburg, Germany -- SUN e10k, Primepower etc.

    The owner of these machines wrote in a German forum that with the help of a few guys he was able to move many of these systems. This comprised serveral truck loads and, as far as I understood, at least a broken finger. Some of the systems were obviously stolen while they were moved out of the...
