Hi Ed,
I still have the mighty mouse and you are welcome to it. I think discussion stopped with getting it to Arizona. If you want to talk about it again, let me know.
Best Regards,
Chuck Trites

At the risk of stating the obvious - there is something of value in/on
this box:
It's MPE/iX License.
Even if it's not going to be transferred to different "HP" hardware, it's
HPSUSAN *should* be useful to power a copy of the Charon HPA/3000 emulator
(even if it's just used to enable a 'freeware' copy). [I'd intended to
write *could* here, but you know - I think *should* fits better]. ;-)
The Charon license text stipulates that to enable the freeware version -
even for personal use - you're to use a HPSUSAN that you are 'owner' of
(i.e. - from a system under your ownership/control).
If you're to use a production version of Charon-HPA/3000 - you actually
have to work with them and HP to get the HPSUSAN legally transferred
('moved') from the old hardware onto a 'USB' license key used with the new
'virtual' system (rather like we have to do to 'transfer ownership' of the MPE/iX
license when a server is bought or sold).
Seems to me that eventually, at least, HPSUSAN numbers from HP hardware
running MPE/iX will have some value, if only for this.
Of course - I could be interpreting the legal stuff here all wrong, and
I'd welcome anyone that could help enlighten us.
