Hello Fellow Listeners:

To add to this subject just a minor point, HP offers a cross-grade program that can be used to change an HP3000 to an HP9000, or visa versa. This "not-widely-publicized" program was primarily expected to move in one direction, but a message to HP CSY could probably find the method for movement in the opposite direction. Perhaps someone from CSY who is monitoring this list could reply?

Ciao for now.

Do you think the title of this thread should be changed to
"another one RISES from the dust".... ?

BTW: I see Mark referred to this move as an 'upgrade' and Terry's moving
'off an HP9000 system to an HP3000 based BUSINESS system'..... Freudian
slips??  I think not.
