And, add something similar for Mark Bixby.


Yes...I *know* the 125 was available in 1983 ... I got a hernia
carrying one back to HP on my last day of work there in September of 1983.
I can't recall if I borrowed it from HP in 1983 or late in 1982.

I also seem to recall purchasing an HP 150 in 1984.  (One for my use,
and one which was the first HP 150 shipped to England.)

But... please recall my note: these are the dates of the *CATALOGS*
in which the equipment first appeared.  The catalogs were printed
once a year, with an unknown amount of lead time!

Darn!
