I was recenlty given a copy of the "A Quick Reference to HP Time-Shared
BASIC" Printed 9/1969. It's a pamphlet-sized doc. If anyone would like a
copy and it does not already exist on the Internet I will make a PDF and
put it up on my web site. The system associated with the guide is the
Hewlet-Packard 2000A.

I'm generally more interested in 2000E and
2000/Access variants of TSB, as
that's what I have actually running. If anyone can get an HP fixed head
disc, we could get 2000A running again but I kinda doubt those are around -
I and others have looked :)
The quick reference guide for 2000A would be a rather good artifact to have
archived from a historical perspective. Any chance we could get it up on
bitsavers after you scan it?

I'm quite familiar with it :) 2000A version of TSB had
really minimal
hardware requirements, most trivial to find the parts... except that fixed
head disc - there's a deal breaker. 2000E is the easiest to run as it
doesn't require anything TOO difficult to find other than the 12920 mux
sets. 2000/Access is the most fun though - most full featured - and best
documented.
