I seem to be having trouble logging on to the HP calculator BBS. I get as far as the prompt "Please enter your name:," which I answer. Then it hangs. I waited 20 minutes (with long distance charges accumulating), and it didn't do a thing. Finally I tried control-C, and it said something like "User pressed INTERRUPT - exiting" and hung up on me. What am I doing wrong? Is this long delay some kind of initiation ceremony? Should I try during the wee hours instead? -- Bill McFadden Tektronix, Inc. P.O.
