Identification of an HP minicomputer

[Guy Dunphy]

Hi Guy,

If you didn't see this, it may be of interest:

It won't help you identify your system model, but could be of help with disassembly.

Funny coincidence that we have the same name, and similar HP-1000 minicomputers.

Sigh... 2019 slips by, and I still haven't returned to that project.
