John, I sent all the original proceedings CDs plus many HP marketing CDs
that I had to Ron Seybold.
I guess that he got them as he didn't acknowledge the receipt of them to
me.

Subject: [HP3000-L] INTEREX North American Conference Proceedings
Does anyone have copies of the INTEREX North American Conference
Proceedings
from 1985 through 1989? I'm trying to find copies of papers I wrote and
presented at INTEREX conferences in the 1985 through 1989 time period. If
someone does have copies of the Proceedings, please look for papers written
by me, John Korb. If you find them, please let me know as I'd like to
arrange to get either scans of the Proceedings cover an my papers, or
photocopies if scans are not possible.
Thanks!
Side Note:
I originally wrote and saved the papers using an HP 150B, saving to 3.5"
1.44 MB floppies. Eventually I copied them to a hard drive on a
486 PC, then to a CD, assuming the CD would be readable many years later.
Unfortunately, the CD is unreadable in any drive I've tried, and I've tried
more than a dozen drives. The closest I've gotten to reading the CD was
with an LG Blu-ray burner, model HL-DT-ST BD-RE WH12LS39, which can read
about a third of the files on the CD. That LG Blu-ray burner is the ONLY
drive that can read ANYTHING from the CD.
I next tried firing up the HP 150B. While the HP 150B works and will boot
to DOS 3.2 from the floppy that was sitting in its drive, it can't read the
floppy with the papers on it. It tries, but it can't read it.
I found the old 486 in the basement. It was retired when its "C"
drive started sounding wining and burned the CD just before it was shut
down
for the last time. The 486 and drive hadn't been spun up in years. I
pulled its hard drive (a 1.6 GB IDE drive) and plugged it in to an old
Windows XP box, but it lasted less than three minutes before it failed,
screaming as it died. Thus, it looks like paper is probably the only media
readable twenty plus years later.
