Hi Paul,
Actually, that was the first place I looked....barely a mention of the "4xx"
series and nothing at all about the "7xx" machines.
Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places, but there just doesn't seem to be
much in the way of FAQs detailing the HP-9000 family in general (or
HP-3000) - or am I looking in the wrong places?
Actually I was impressed it looks like a LOT of activity is going on just
from chasing the 3 or 4 posts to this list with links.
I found mailing
lists, newsgroups, and half a dozen or more web sites. Now
"some" of the
links were pretty quiet, but many "looked" active.
HP is doing a ONE TIME free update to older 9000 series computers (they say
9000/800, but I don't know) to current 10.20 software. This offer ends on
April 30th 2000, so don't drag your feet if interested. The blurb claims
they want to "welcome" people back to HP support, but I didn't see any
strings. Could be they see offering this as a blanket get out of liability
on any y2k issues.
