I am the proud owner of a HP85 after a friend persuaded a country rubbish
dump operator that it really belonged in a museum or something similar.
Seems to work ok, found a listing for a fractal program on the web and it
worked after I corrected a typo in the listing. (And added a line to clear
the graphics screen at the start of each run.
I haven't been able to test the printer properly, but it appears ok, and I
can't test the tape drive because I don't have any media.
Anyone out there know 1) Where (if?) I can get tape media for it?
2) Any software about?
3) Any expansion modules.
Seems to be an original HP85 (85A?) S/N 2204B 38784
No idea where it came from originally. Possibly a local govt office. Came
from a VERY small town in the hills.
First HP I've been able to find, nice little machine....
