I've got it going for a trial install in the G70. It's clicking along just fine

I think when I'm done I'll investigate HP-UX 10.20 for 800s (if I can find it),

I'm looking at the HP package and have a B2000 on the way to me (completes

keyboards and mice on these beasties? I have a sneaking suspicion that
most standard components will work, but would appreciate knowing what to
stay away from.
