Re: HPCC Mini Conference 2013 Message #2 Posted by Harald on 11 Sept 2013, 2:03 p.m., in response to message #1 by hugh steers Bummer, I am in the UK at the moment, but have tickets for the Goodwood Revival which I don't want to waste. Is there going to be another one next year?

Re: HPCC Mini Conference 2013 Message #3 Posted by hugh steers on 11 Sept 2013, 6:42 p.m., in response to message #2 by Harald Yes, there's a mini-conference every year and a bigger one every five years. This one's only a mini. It usually falls in early September.

I will attempt to identify the pictures : 1) General view from the balcony of the PCR at Imperial College over Prince Consort Road 2) My HP9100B and 9125 plotter 3) My homebrew EPROM module for the HP9810/HP9820 4) Wlodek talking about an HP41 (I think) 5) Hugh talking about ?? 6) Wlodek describing the HP15C LE 7) Me talking about the HP9866 printer hardware. 8) Danish (Dr Ali) telling us how to build a calculator on a microcontroller board 9) Me descibing part of an HP paper tape reader 10) My HP paper tape reader 11) Hugh describing calculator displays 12) The display board from my HP9820 or HP9830 (Can't see which).

Re: HPCC Mini Conference 2013 Message #6 Posted by hugh steers on 12 Sept 2013, 8:23 a.m., in response to message #5 by Tony Duell Yes, thanks for describing the pictures. These are mostly from last year and the year before. I just cut 'n' pasted a variety of presentation action shots. You're right that your kit features a lot. I think this because you tend to supply all the "big iron", which makes for good photos. and it shows what everyone is missing!

Hugh's talk was on calculator display technologies - that slide showed pixel densities over time by manufacturer. And very interesting it was too!
