Hello, I am posting this for a friend at CSUS in California. I have someone who is trying to work a HP-125 and he needs some specs on the computer and if there is possibility some help on figuring out how to get the disk drive unit working ( needs a special? cable). This HP-125 system is composed up of a huge monitor and moveable keyboard, with a seperatbox unit holding the CPU? and disk drives. It has a port for the floppy control and a GPIB port. It was made sometime in the early 1970's. Any information about the above system would be greatly appreciated. Please send all pointers and letters to lewj@athena.ecs.csus.edu. Thanks. another wise man say: Ancient Machines which die suddenly also take their operators with them.

The HP-125 was a CP/M machine, more or less. Don't recall if it was 8086 or what chip, but the cable you want is an HP-IB cable (there is an IEEE equiv).
