  I have posted a couple (very low production value)
videos of a Classic
 early-1980s HP3000 on Youtube:
 1. System power up and CMP commands -

 Enjoy! 
    Oh, I did!  Thanks for posting those - I used to work on the 3000
systems in '86-'88, everything from the Series III to the Series 70.  I'd
like to get my hands on something like a Series 42, some day.
