[comp.sys.hp] HP-41 and PPC info

sentinel@killer.UUCP (The Sentinel) (05/14/87)

    Does anybody know if the organization called "PPC" still exists?  I wrote
to an address for them I got when I bought my 41CX, but my mail was returned
with no forwarding address.  Also, they had a BBS which is apparently down
now.  If they still exist, can someone tell me how to get in touch with them?

    Also, can anyone recommend any books, articles, or other sources of
information on synthetic programming or microcode?  I don't have a ready
source for HP-41 material locally, and I don't like ordering books I haven't
seen.  I have a book called "Synthetic Programming Made Easy" by Keith
Jarett, but I can't locate any others.

G'day,
--TS

 Sorry to have to post this, but the mailer gagged on the return address
  
  In reply to your question about HP-41 goodies, possibly one of the best
sources of goodies is a place in CA named EduCALC. 

   EduCALC 
   27953 Cabot Road
   Laguna Nigel, CA 92677

if you call them, they will be happy to get a catalog in the mail to 
you. I can recommond (?) two books in their catalog.

If you don't like them, they have a very good money back policy, and so 
I have never worried about ordering from them. 

Re. PPC and CHHU

 CHHU seems to be in the process of shutting down, due to a lack of money.
PPC has been slowly moving away from the 41 and towards other things. Both
groups have complete files of back issues available, which would be a good 
thing to get your hands on if you do get in touch with them.

I'm going to be out at the beach next week, but feel free to send mail
