Hey, remember, HP released the whole OS listing for 41. I think that they have shown a lot of sense during the years, with regard to their users. >/kim ====================================================================== Everybody know that the DECstation - I'm on a bus is a pdp8, which is a RISC, but - on a psychodelic trip, where did MIPS computers get into it? - reading murder books - and tryin' to stay hip. - Johnny Billquist - Billy Idol D89.JOHNNY-BILLQUIST@CARMEN.DOCS.UU.SE ======================================================================

I've always been very happy with HP as a company, and most of their products are second to none ... especially their calculators! I did not know about the OS listings for the HP41 being released. As an owner of one of these *fine* machines (and the PPC ROM), I'm very interested in this. Do you (or does anybody) know where/how I might be able to get a copy (email, ftp, bbs, etc)? How about any other 41 related info/pgms/etc? Thanks for any help! /kim P.S. I originally tried to email this back to Johnny, but our mailer (which is usually pretty "smart") knows from nothing about "noggerchoc". -- UUCP: kim@uts.amdahl.com or: {sun,decwrl,hplabs,pyramid,uunet,oliveb,ames}!amdahl!kim DDD: 408-746-8462 USPS: Amdahl Corp.

Is the 41 OS listing really available, and if so, where might I be able to get a copy of it?
