RE: Returning to the HP fold
Good to know there is a lifeline for my HP25.

For the time being, I'll be pushing on the HP41 collection. I'm looking thru the site and my stored materials.

My PPCJournals are 90% organized so, if an article references an earlier issue I have a good shot at finding it. When the History materials I've order here arrives that will be a moot point, but it is fun looking thru the originals. I think I found the banner program precursor that I used after modifying it somewhat. I added a 'wide' mode, (printed every vertical line of a banner character twice) and I think I used a synthetic character that built up each banner character from solid black character.

Yes, I recall this banner program being a battery and paper hog, but I really liked the look of the finished product. I think I have the magnetic cards for it, and I suspect a cassette tape and a floppy might have some backup copies.

I think I found the PPC listing for the fast(est) calendar printer today too. And the barcode. My wand works, so when I get a decent battery pack for the 82162 I'll get my 'sea legs' back doing things with the 41 I remember the best.

I found some work related magnetic cards too. Haven't even thought much about that place in 25+ years, I suppose at some point I'll look at the software and see what I was doing.

Found my Paul Monroe Hydracomp advertisement too. If it isn't on the site's historical files I'll make it available. The ROM is in the 41CL so I'm thinking you already have all the paperwork on it, but if not, I at least have the sales brochure for it.

Was also looking over the adapter cable I made to break out of my 82166. YIKES, that is a Frankenconnector. It looks extremely homemade.

[shudder]


I was into functionality, it looks like I didn't care much what it looked like. I'm pretty sure that is what connected to the CGP-115.
