Aren't there any HP fans out there using and programming the HP-71B anymore ? No love for the poor beastie ? I hope you don't mind that I find this very funny, since I only wrote one book in my whole life, and it was about the HP-71 which I *still* love dearly. The very notion of ME ("The HP-71 Answer Man" back in the day) holding the HP-71 in contempt is hilarious. But the primary purpose of the contest is FUN, and it would NOT be fun (but instead quite exasperating) if I had to judge more than a few different models in the VERY short amount of time allocated for judging. So I'm only including the top three HP models that attendees are most likely to bring with them. THREE is already pushing it. Most years we've only had one or two models. However, as others here have said, please post your HP-71 program, and if it's elegant enough, you might even win an Honorable Mention which will live forever in the MoHPC Digital Archive. <0|ɸ|0> -Joe- |
