I agree with Archilog, lot of time for nice reading, excellent.
I will try to compress them a little bit. Thanks for sharing Bob

I encourage anyone with similar vintage HP (or about HP stuff even if not created by HP) documents, brochures, pamphlets, guides, etc. to share them, so the community can enjoy them too.

My thanks to hp41cx for making 'The Programming Book' available.

I used to love stuff like this when I was in college (still do!) The HP-TI rivalry really shows in their literature. Thanks for sharing it!

Bob,
thank you for your work and for making the result available. Besides being a great contribution to the community it is also supporting long term preservation. There are too many stories about private collections being dumped (for various reasons) or destroyed by flood and fire.
Having a digital duplicate and spreading it helps to conserve history and does (in my view) not diminish the value of the original paper copy. Having a real book or brochure in hand is still something different than "flipping" through an e-book.

WOW. Thank you so much for making these available. I got on the HP bandwagon in the late 70's with an HP29C, so the style of that era brings serious nostalgia.
