[VA] It's Fall ...

[Valentin Albillo]

  
... and at long last I've uploaded Update #39 (20 new files, 304 pages) to my HP site, details there. For the list of the 16 newly uploaded files (plus 4 unlisted Easter Eggs,) scroll down to the bottom of the main page to "Latest Additions".

Worth highlighting, there's one PDF document containing the raw thermal-printed listings of some 70 programs I wrote for the HP-41C back in 1980-1981, which I've carefully and painstakingly cleaned up and processed on a character-by-character basis to make them perfectly human-readable, with no faded, missing or ambiguous parts so that they can be used on any physical/virtual HP-41C with no problems. They're better-quality than previous versions appearing elsewhere, which oftentimes are almost or totally unusable, very bad scans.

This is an example ("before - after") of my processing:

The web page is beautiful, well organized and complete. I am a HP 25, 67 and 35s program collector and user from Argentina. Very nice job, thanks for sharing. Pedro

Wow there is so much great stuff to see here. The brochures alone are amazing and I haven't even seen a fraction of what is at this site (yet). Thank you Valentin!

Any guess for the calculator model on the picture? I have my idea...

The model on the summer picture was a Voyager (I bet the 15C), but the spring model ... a Woodstock or a Spice?

Hi, all,

Thanks a lot to all of you for your appreciation and kind words in general. I've been absent from the forum for close to six months and was considering abandonning it altogether, uploading Update #39 as a parting gift (after spending close to two months cleaning & restoring the 70 HP-41C vintage program listings), but your warm comments are making me reconsider. There's still hope

I'm now replying to each of your posts on and individual basis, please read on:

Wow, what a first reply to my OP, I feel honored by your words, Ángel, "kind" doesn't make them justice. Much, "mucher", "muchest" appreciated.

You're welcome, Pedro, thanks for your appreciation. I also began four decades ago with an HP-25 and then an HP-67and you see, forty years later I'm still enjoying it all to the max. It's been a constant in my life.

Thank you very much, aurelio, I'm glad to be of help now, and fully expect to be in the future.

You're welcome, Steve, there's almost 4,000 pages of vintage (40 yo) materials and several thousand more of newer articles, programs, challenges and everything so even skimming through it would take many, many hours, let alone writing and uploading it all !

You're welcome, Gene, thanks to you for your kind words and continued appreciation of my productions over the decades.

I'm glad you enjoy my materials and thanks to you for your encouraging words, Eddie !

Hehe, you're a good example as well, making available tons of materials with your torrents, so thanks for your appreciation and further thanks to you in return for your efforts.

Since you got no takers, I'll answer your question myself, J-F:

Spring: an HP-25


Summer: an HP-15C


Autumn: an HP-67


Winter: surely you might guess it correctly ? It's pretty obvious !

Best regards to all of you.

I would hazard a guess, but it may take 71 tries....
