RE: HP 9100 acquisition
The https://hp9100.info/ link is a good one.
Right on the home page for that, I enjoyed the March 1968 press release announcing the new 9100. It was heralded as a "self-contained" electronic calculator that was only the size of a typewriter. It's not mentioned there, but the release price was $4900.

Fewer than 4 years later, HP releases the HP-35 which is far smaller and costs less than 1/10 the price. What an amazing world-changing achievement in so short a time!
