To which Tony replied...
This is one series of HP computer that I've never
been inside. So if
anyone knows of any available in southern England, I might be
interested... Particularly if they're relatively small...
Tony - don't you have a 2112? That's a 1000M (when I said HP1K I was using
shorthand for HP1000)
Now, from what I've read, the HP1000L (I think
that's the small one,
isn't it) used an HP custom CPU chip. But I have what appears to be a CPU
board from such a machine built from 4 2901s, a 2910, and microcode
PROMs. What do I have? What machine should I be looking for to find a
complete system using that sort of CPU board?
There was actually an HP1000K if memory serves... the one I am referring to
is a 1000 M/E/F style box, but it is modular. You can pick various memory &
I/O chassis & such (instead of the canned slot count). I have never seen one
in the wild, but I do have the marketing brochure for it.
