More seriously, I picked up an HP9836 many years ago. It seems to power
up correctly, and then asks for a system disk (I don't have any of ROM
boards that I believe existed).
The ROM boards do exist. I have one or two with HPL and five or six with
BASIC. I learned a long time ago to look at the boards in EVERY
junk/scrap/surplus computer that I see. I've found a LOT of interesting
boards in computers that I would have ignored otherwise.

I don't have any disks for it, though.
It's sitting in the corner of my workshop.... If anyone has the disks for
this series of machines, I'd be interested in working copies too.
