Marc, I'm scrapping a 9826 right now as part of a clean-up of the HP Computer Museum and have a keyboard (or specific keycaps) and power switch available for the cost of shipping. If you have any specific IO boards you are after I might have some of those spare as well. Let me know.

I am missing a few key caps/switches and a power switch on mine (the three of them which come... from you!). And extra IO boards are always welcome. Before you scrap everything, let me know if I can come on Sunday.

I have three vintage HP 9836 computers, two monochrome monitors, one color monitor and three printers. I'm sure they are going to need work to get running. No testing has been done.

The video boards (in the main unit, under the left disk drive) are different between mono and colour versions of the 9836. You can't use a colour monitor on a monochrome machine or vice versa. So if somebody ends up taking 1 or 2 machines, make sure you get the right monitors. An easy way to tell them apart without dismantling is that the colour machine has a thumbwheel (contrast control) on the bottom.. Left side, about level with the front of the drives. The mono machine doesn't. The mono motor has a knob on the back, the colour monitor has an IEC mains connector. -tony I looked at the three machines. Two are monochrome and the third has a sticker saying it's been upgraded to an 9836C so that's the one for the color monitor. Unfortunately, it looks like no one is interested in them so they might get scrapped. Oh well... I just don't have room to keep everything. Bob
