>> emulation of those instructions to MPE so that APL\3000 could run again
> for
>> the first time in 35 years or so.
>>
>> So, here is a (probably temporary so get it while you can) link to the
> new
>> 1.4 version of "My Series III" for all your retro-MPE needs.
>>
>> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gfUpk3R4OcuqReWXbKXnFwtJ62JDX16y
>>
>> All the instructions you need are in the associated README.txt file, and
>> it takes only a minute or so to be up and running with MPE. You can
>> optionally use Reflection (if you have it) or QCTerm (links to the free
>> archived version and instructions in the README) to get full terminal
>> functionality and run up to 15 user sessions via telnet to the virtual
> ATC
>> ports on the Series III.
>>
>> This version includes fully working APL\3000 and my associated APL CPU
>> Instruction Set emulation, as well as being a new model of HP-3000,
>> which
>> one might call a Series III+ (or even a Series IV) which has its memory
>> "hardware" support increased to 8MB (4096K words) which is the same
> maximum
>> amount of memory that MPE IV supported on the Series 64 in those days.
>>
>> One extra file is included with this version which is a PDF of the 1976
>> APL\3000 Reference Manual since that has been so hard to find.
>>
>> One tip for playing with APL: Turn your CAPS LOCK on first.
>>
>> It also contains several metric crap-tons of old freeware including a
>> complete GAMES account with all of the historically relevant software
> like
>> Advent, Mansion, Dungeon, Warp, Trek73, DROID, and even the DRAGONS game
>> written by a college kid who then used it to get a job at TSR where he
>> contributed to the writing in many of their D&D products and later went
> on
>> to be the lead designer for a little game called Skyrim.
>>
>> This is a five-disc system (you can add up to three more if you need
>> more
>> space, though there's about a million free sectors right now) with the
>> directory expanded to 6,000 sectors and various system tables expanded
> so
>> you should not encounter any issues with it. It has been perfectly
> stable,
>> staying up for weeks and pretty much never crashing or having any issue
>> whatsoever.
>>
>> Hopefully one or two of you will have some fun with it.
>>
>> Feedback is appreciated.
