We have an A3330A in which we've used all three cartridge sizes successfully.

Gentle HP 3000 Listers,
Yesterday, I was perusing the Spring issue of the HP-UX resource directory,
and as I opened the cover, an ad on the inside cover caught my eye, as ads
are supposed to do. The picture shows a man working on what seems to be a
large, antiquated laptop. Reading the text, one discovers this is not an
ordinary laptop, but rather, a portable HP-UX workstation!
The Galaxy 1100 is marketed by SAIC of San Diego, CA which describes the
product thusly:
"Execute complex applications, perform software development and
demonstrations (italics are mine), network administration and other HP-UX
computing tasks easily. A 10.4 inch, full-color, active matrix LCD renders
images at a resolution of 1024 x 768, giving you superb graphics
capability. Powerful and portable, Galaxy 1100 is fully software
compatible with the HP 9000/700 workstation series. It has 32 MB of RAM,
expandable to 128 MB with error detection/correction capability, and the
performance and reliability of the HP PA-RISC processor."
They list a web site at www.saic.com/it/stp/galaxy/index.html
A quick check reveals they printed an invalid URL. The real one is
www.saic.com/it/stp/computers/galaxy.html
The specs are as follow:
80 MHz HP 712 PA-RISC CPU; 32 MB of RAM expandable to 128 MB with error
detection/correction capability; 2 GB hard drive; 3.5-inch 1.44 MB floppy
drive; 10.4-inch color active matrix LCD; 2 integral PCMCIA slots; IEEE
802.3 Ethernet interface; SCSI-2 interface; POSIX-based HP-UX operating
system
So it has been done for the HP 9000, why can't it be done for the HP 3000?
On my Compaq Armada, I currently dual boot between Windows NT Server 4.0
and Windows 95. When I give talks, I sometimes also carry my other laptop
and thus create an NT based network, running Exchange 5.0 and SQL Server
6.5. With a gadget like the Galaxy, I could also connect to an HP 3000.
Sigh.
Kind regards,
Denys. . .
