[comp.sys.hp] SYSEVAL and hp28-s

bp@pixar.uucp (Busy Person) (05/25/88)

I have a new 28-s. Incredible machine except for the lack of I/O. The
fact that there's no way to get input into the thing except through the
keyboard is a bit frustrating. When HP comes out with one that can receive
infrared as well as send, I'll snap it up.

Someone just mentioned a clock program (using SYSEVAL I assume) for the
28-c. Does anything similar exist for the 28-s? Is any information available
on the internals of the 28-s?

Wozniak's CORE controllers don't seem to be able to capture the infrared
printer output of the 28-c and 28-s.
