Oh yuck. I re-read the service manual carefully and
it sort of implies
that the unit has an EVC video connector. I've never seen one, so would
someone who has tell me if it's about the same size as an HD15F? The
picture is a little fuzzy, but it sure _looks_ like an HD15.
No, EVC looks like a stretched DVI. 9000/B2000 is FXe, which outputs on a VGA-type
HD-15. You're lucky.
Same deal as the SGI, then. Not a big problem, I'm
used to gcc/g++!
Nope, better: the development tools install and operate. Just consider yourself
duty-bound to become a HP 9000 developer and promote the platform if you use them,
and everything should be O.K.

I jumped the gun and ordered an EVC --> HD15F adapter from HP anyway.
It's enough out-of-the-ordinary to be worth having on hand and the 20-odd
bucks won't kill me.
Wow, great! I sure wish HP would make the Alpha C/C++ compilers available
gratis. Maybe this is the start of a trend.

Is that a new feature? Do you get the Customer ID and Licence Code for
free now? (These are necessary to unlock e.g. the compilers on the
Applications CD)
