Don't have anything that new; a C180 will run standard kbd/mouse and
perepherals just fine. What graphics do you have? HP jumped on the next
big thing, the EVC connector, really fast. I don't think anybody else
did. Finding an adaptor can be fun-. The newer FX5/FX10s I believe have
DVI, though.
The seller tells me that the B2000 has a "15-pin video card" installed,
which sounds like the usual HD-15F connector.
The apps disk does appear to contain cc and cxx.
Don't know if they have
fixed license policies in place or if you just are asked nicely to get a
license from HP. To do that, you either (a) get a commercial software
product for HP-UX developed or (b) you send them a check for about $900.
HP-UX does have all headers, so GCC is an option if you have cycles to
burn (don't even think of using anything less than GCC 3.3 - it seems
to, um, "pessimize" programs on RISC architectures) I'll play around
with the C180 and check out the apps- I have more disk space there
(wohoo! 6GB!)
Same deal as the SGI, then. Not a big problem, I'm used to gcc/g++!
