Hi Mark,
Have you ever replaced the TOD clock battery in your 917? The follow-on 918
had a field replaceable battery, but the 917 had one soldered onto the
motherboard.
*Very* nice system. I had one for a while and they are a great hobbyist box.

I've just listed my complete HP-3000 system on
eBay here. This is an
HP-3000 917LX system with:
Disks: (2) 2GB drive (possibly RAID, but I'm not sure)
Tape: (2) DAT (built-in and external)
16-port terminal concentrator
12-port Ethernet hub
Terminals (2) HP 700/96 + one 700/92 that probably doesn't work
Line-printer 300 LPM with stand, ribbons, and paper
Dot-matrix printers (2) with ribbons
All cables
MPE/iX, ASK/ManMan, QUERY, TurboIMAGE
FORTRAN
Documentation (50+ pounds, including all service and upgrade records)
It all works perfectly (as of two days ago). There's a possibility that I
might deliver it if you're near Portland OR or the San Francisco Bay area,
or off the I-5 in between; otherwise it's local pickup only (in either
location). It's listed for $2600 buy-it-now, or a starting bid of $2000,
but if you're really interested email with an offer and we'll see what can
be worked out...
