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.
