HP-41 MCODE Chess ROM ?????
I've come across a short mention to an MCODE Chess ROM for the 41, developped by L. Lirpa from Finland - and apparently presented in some PPC-UK Chapter meeting back in 1985.

See the actual article in page 85.3.51:
http://hp41.claughan.com/file/Prisma%201985-03.pdf

The article gives enough details (CAT'2 contents, buffer info..) to perhaps discard an April's fool joke (note that "L. Lirpa" is "April L" reversed!) so something must have been done - but this is a complete mystery as far as I know.

Anyone ever came across those EPROMs or that allegedly wonder ROM at all?
If it was an April's fool stunt then Prisma passed it on blindly!

It's a hoax! haha, great staging from those folks back then ;-))
