HHC2007 website updated with a surprise! Message #1 Posted by Gene on 7 June 2007, 11:54 a.m. http://www.holyjoe.net/hhc2007/ Go here and click on the small image of the HP35 at the top of the page. The suprise is on the page it takes you to. At this point, we have well over 30 registered attendees. While you're there, consider whether you can come and register to do so. Enjoy time with fellow calculator nuts, ahem, enthusiasts and help celebrate the 35th anniversary of the HP35.

Also, below that HP35 brochure link is a new one called "other legacy literature" where there currently are nine high-res pdf scans of "ancient" HP calculator brochures, for your enjoyment. More will be added shortly. See you in San Diego, Jake Schwartz

Re: HHC2007 website updated with a surprise! Message #8 Posted by Giancarlo (Italy) on 12 June 2007, 11:48 a.m., in response to message #6 by Jake Schwartz Hi Jake. There's an Italian proverb that says :"L'appetito vien mangiando" that in English could sound like "the more you eat, the more appetite you get"... Any further brochures :-) ? Seriously: great stuff, great gift, thanks a lot !!! Best regards Giancarlo Edited: 12 June 2007, 11:49 a.m.

Re: 11-hour flight to HHC Message #10 Posted by Paul Brogger on 12 June 2007, 10:47 a.m., in response to message #9 by Walter B Bring along your favorite handheld programmable, and make good use of all that extra time! Edited: 12 June 2007, 10:48 a.m.

Re: 11-hour flight to HHC Message #11 Posted by Walter B on 12 June 2007, 11:54 a.m., in response to message #10 by Paul Brogger Congratulations, you killed the very root cause with your first shot! In fact, the bigger part of the problem is to get the time off and the $$$ for the travelling expenses. Sorted: time off > $$$ > flight time.

Re: 11-hour flight to HHC Message #12 Posted by Paul Brogger on 13 June 2007, 12:54 p.m., in response to message #11 by Walter B Well, I suspected you could probably figure out something to do with a few idle hours. Yes, the money & time are significant factors, aren't they? Fortunately for me, I've relatives in the area, and I'm "just up the coast" a bit.

Re: 11-hour flight to HHC Message #16 Posted by Walter B on 14 June 2007, 2:31 a.m., in response to message #15 by DaveJ OK, can you pick me up? :-)

Re: 11-hour flight to HHC Message #17 Posted by DaveJ on 14 June 2007, 3:17 a.m., in response to message #16 by Walter B Quote: OK, can you pick me up? :-) I think the only land between Sydney and mainland USA is Hawaii, which I'll gladly stop at for a pick-up. I'll take business class please! Dave.

Re: 11-hour flight to HHC Message #18 Posted by Walter B on 14 June 2007, 4:12 a.m., in response to message #17 by DaveJ Come on, Europe is worth a detour, so fly the other way round! If you won't insist on C, the money will be sufficient for 2*Y :-)

Re: 11-hour flight to HHC Message #19 Posted by Paul Fox on 14 June 2007, 6:19 a.m., in response to message #18 by Walter B Nope - definitely no reason to detour Europe, especially the UK. They might just fine you for not disposing of your spare keystrokes in a carbon friendly manner. Move along please!
