[Premium-Rx] HP-64000 System - FREE

[Andy Gardner]

Wow! If I wasn't on the other side of the world!

If there is any chance you could image those disks and upload them to 
the HP Test Equipment web  site (or any of the tech software 
repositories), that would be amazing.

Then you have to wonder if there might be other interesting stuff on the 
backup tapes.

Cheers,
