Paper tape. This is the 'fastest' easy way to bootstrap an HP 1000.
Use this with a 12566 microcircuit I/O board, and you can load a 31K word
boot image in less than 2 seconds, faster than many stock HP disk drives.
Use this boot rom with the emulator I'm building for you. I'll supply a
cable and jumper settings for the I/O card (gnd true).
