Spill it! Any HP Xmas Presents? - John W Kercheval - 01-04-2015 11:23 AM

was you stocking stuffed with digital tapes?

Did you baste your goose with an optical wand?

Did you use an IL interface to have your 75D control your oven?

Why not use IL cable to string your XMas lamps using the IR CX modules that blink red when activated...

any Xmas HP presents?

Any creativity? Or did you just get sweaters with animals on them?

Hello!

Unfortunately, nobody wanted to make me an HP Christmas present this year. So I had to do it myself: An HP-70 is on it's way to me, one of the few (LED) calculators that I am still missing in my collection. From eBay and not insanely expensive, but still expensive enough that I can't afford one every day... so it was an excellent coincidence (well, maybe not but rather a smart move of the seller) that the auction ended shortly after Christmas.

Regards
Max

Although I have received them a little bit before Christmas
A functional ZVC with some ZEPROMs was my gift to me. 8-)

I forgot to mention it the first time, but Dave and Robert graciously
gave me a custom crafted HP-71 module (called OD) that allow the
FRAM71 module to take over the HP-71B system ROM's.
Thank you both! very appreciated. 8-)

Best Wishes!

Sylvain

Edit: added the OD module.

Congrats on that one, the ZVC it's a beauty! Those are extremely rare... I also have one and love watching the burnig software in action, a real treat to behold its operation...

Cheers,

My personal Xmas present has just arrived, a 71B from a forum member. I plan to use it for a yet to buy FRAM71 (it's already ordered).

BTW, has someone some spare front port covers for the 71B? Mine came without any of them.
