Where have all the HP3000 systems gone?
Between 1986 and 1988, I worked on a whole slew of
HP3000s, from the Series III to the Series 70. They were
popular in the business environment, especially in COBOL
shops. Where did they end up? You can find loads of DEC
equipment on Ebay, even IBM System 34, 36 and AS/400s, the
occasional HP1000, but the only HP3000 I recall seeing in
recent years was a single Model 37.
