HP 9800 aboard the Concorde - vassilisprevelakis - 03-07-2014 05:51 PM

I was watching a documentary on the development of the Concorde when I jumped up! Was this an HP 9800 ???

Judge for yourselves:

Not a 9800 series machine, but it is an HP. It's a 9100B.

Hi Katie,

You are, of course, correct.

Actually it was the 9100 I had in mind when typing this, but got it wrong in the end.

One question though, why 9100B and not A, can you tell from the picture?

Not from the picture, but from the next second in the video we can see it lacks the large CONTINUE key. On the 9100B It is a regular size key, labeled CONT.
