That's cute Joe, but I am a little confused. What makes you believe I
am urging people to get away from the HP3000 soon?
On the contrary, I have been working quite diligently to come up with
methods and equipment to keep these magnificent machines running forever
or at least until 2027.
I have done quite a bit of research, which I have freely shared with
this list and others, on disk drive replacement and expansion. This
includes devices to attach various 3000s to the latest technology
storage devices. I have also posted numerous times about tape devices
that would help homesteaders.
Perhaps you take exception to my posting dealing with other technologies
that are available out there. I did start talking about PCI Express,
for examples. If you found that offensive, I apologize. It certainly
was not meant to be. I just thought people would like to know.
I do stand by my statement that the HP 3000 OS does not do a lot,
compared to other OS. However, that is also part of its elegance,
reliability and endurance.

Let's face it, the only people that should run for president is Denys
and
Wirt.
Anything short of either of these two would be short changing the
country.
Denys on the right.... Wing Wirt on the Left.....Wing
Now if we were to start the campaign today it would begin with Denys
telling all of us that the HP3000 is a WMD and we best get away from it
soon.
Wirt- Well we would be on this system forever or till we all retire
which
ever comes first..
I vote for MPE ....Mass

Lordy, it's not a "story." It's nonsense. It's nonsense designed to
sucker
in
the same gullible people who still believe that we're going to uncover
vast
caches of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. That line was obviously
nonsense
before the invasion. It's seems only the more obvious now, but there are
still people who believe it, with Dick Cheney being the first to come to
mind.
It is the same kind of bitter, right-wing nonsense that the same group
of
Houston oil people pulled on John McCain in New York (ads sponsored by
"Republicans for a Green Environment") and in South Carolina, where they
spread the
rumor that McCain has a "black" baby. But the regrettable part is that
some
people
-- especially people who aren't paying much attention or who are so
blinded
by their own prejudices -- will believe some fraction of this
hate-filled
nonsense.
