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...

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...

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...

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...

I am looking for floppy disk images of older HP-UX versions for early HP 9000 systems with MC68010 processors. The first version seems to have been 2.0 and then 2.1 and would be the most interesting. These seem to have been followed by version 5.0 and 5.1. Version 5.1 and some later versions...

I am looking for an uninstalled Wordstar 3.3 for generic MS-DOS systems. I searched the usual suspects but so far I only found the CP/M variant (configurable for Terminals) and the IBM PC-DOS variant. The PC-DOS version comes already pre-configured for the IBM-PC (relying on its BIOS), and...

While I was toying around with Windows 2 Software I came across a printer driver from MicrografX which can write to slide printers/cameras. Besides NAPLPS (for which there is plenty of documentation and for which I have already written a rudimentary parser/converter to color postscript) SCODL...

The 80286/80287 processor pair can be clocked with separate clocks. In many cases, the same system clock is used for both CPUs. In my 8 MHz HP Vectra the system clock is 16 MHz which is divided in the 80286 by 2 = 8 MHz and in the 80287 by 3 = 5.33 MHz. Back in the day, some companies produced...

To complete my 1987 HP Vectra I am looking for a keyboard with HP-HIL interface (not the usual 46020/46021 keyboards, but the one with 8 function keys above and 10 function keys to the left of the main keys. It may have the part number 46030, but I am not sure. a color expansion board for the...

Actor was an object oriented programming language for Windows. Very unique for its time. There was a version 2.0 for Windows 2.11, which I would like to try out. The internet offers version 3.1, which runs under Windows 3, but the earlier versions seem to have been lost. Does someone have a...

While not exactly a computer, this device also came with an optional BASIC system. It has a Z80 processor, an HP-IL and a RS-232C interface and can talk to medical/chemistry lab instruments, an integrated Thinkjet and external HP-IL and HB-IB (via converter) hard and floppy disks. I obtained...

Hi, I am working with some small CP/M 2.2 systems and would like to find more info on the GSX graphics system. There is some information about programming and a few drivers but much seems to be missing. My ultimate goal is to write some terminal screen drivers for the 8080/Z-80 GSX system - not...

Hi, looking for a power supply unit 0950-1760 complete with switch and extension rod for a HP-9000 DIO extender box. The PSU should be the same as in most HP-9000/300 systems (300/310/320). It is rated 20A@5V 3.6A@+12V 1.1A@-12V Maybe someone has a completely broken machine or one that has...

The internet offers many copies of the BASIC Reference Manual for the HX-20. All these PDFs seem to come from the same source, just copied over and over again, partially watermarked and otherwise mutilated. All are lacking a pair of pages (3-44 and 3-45). Could some proud owner of a paper copy...

Hi, I am looking for a C1081A or C1082A keyboard for my HP700/70 terminal - preferably in Europe or even Germany to minimize shipping costs. Ideally, the layout should be US (ABA) or German (ABD). With or without cable. Thanks for looking, Martin

Hi, I obtained a PCMCIA card with a parallel port for my HP 100LX palmtop. Unfortunately the card came without software and it requires an enabler program which tells the PCMCIA controller that it is there and to define the I/O addresses it uses. The "Trans Digital" company does not exist...

Hi, in case someone has such a plug-in Card which he is not using: I would be interested for linking with my Series-80 Computers and Series-70 calculators. Also memory boards and piggyback memory boards for the Integral would be of interest. Greetings, Martin

Hi, I am looking for an "I/O ROM" plug-in module for the HP-75 handheld/portable computer for a reasonable price or to swap for an HP 9000 DIO extension board (TBD). Martin Martin.Hepperle(a)MH-AeroTools.de

Hi, as the title says, I would lick to acquire a HP 82900A plug in module for my HP-86 computer. As I want to actually use it (from time to time), it is not necessary to be a pristine NIB collectors item. Also I do not need the paperwork (if included fine, but not absolutely essential for me)...
