RE: HP 9100A 50th Anniversary
Do you know any source that shows interesting results that people did with the help of this calculator? (Maybe someone did something nice even way later, but still using the 9100 series)

I also tried to search stories involving the loci 2, that is a pretty impressive system for that time (see http://www.oldcalculatormuseum.com/wangloci.html ) that predates the 9100A or the wang 300 series (that could be "clustered" , see http://www.oldcalculatormuseum.com/wang360.html ), but with no great success.

Update.
For interesting use I mean something like Dr. Van Allen relied on an HP 9100A and its optional plotter to study the feasibility of using a gravity slingshot around Jupiter to allow Pioneer 11 to intercept Saturn. Pioneer 11 was retasked and arrived at Saturn before Voyager 1.

Wikis are great, Contribute :)
