[comp.sys.hp] HP-110 Basic?

mobo@sphinx.uchicago.edu (Samuel Wilson) (11/05/87)

I have a recently acquired HP-110 laptop and can't get any of the
several versions of Basic I have to run on it.  What sorts of
basic will run, and how does one get hold of them?

Thanks a lot,

Sam Wilson

You can order HP 45445D from HP through your dealer or Sales Rep.  This 
is MicroSoft BASIC.  Alternatively, you can order GWBASIC for your
110.  The HP part number is  HP 45450D.  The MBASIC lists at $300 and 
the GWBASIC lists for $395.

  There is two versions of Basic that run on the 110.  The version that
  was written for the HP150 works very well but does not support graphics.
  There is another version that was written for the portable that does 
  support graphics, but you need the Technical Reference guide to under-
  stand how the bit-mapped display works.  E-mail me if you want more info
  and I will in the mean time look around and see if either is still 
  available.

  By the way if you know of anyone that wants another 110 for $600 or so
  let me know.  I also have asundry software to go with it.
