My New HP 67

[John W Kercheval]

A while ago I wrote that I had bought a NOS HP 67 with a rebuilt card reader with all of the usual refinements.

Just putting it into service today.

Here are some pics.

It will not replace my (fully blown) HP71B but I am excited about putting this beauty through its paces.

BTW I just found a handwritten note in the box that reads:

"Dear Billy H:

Please accept this HP 67 as a token of my appreciation for all your diligent help and here is to the next 42 years!

Signed,

David P.

Christmas, 1981"

I do not know what to make of it.

[Dave Frederickson]

Very nice!

How about some pics of that "fully blown" 71B? Is that the one with the flames painted on the sides and the card reader port is a hood scoop?

John: Here's an oldie but goodie. Turn on your '67, and then press these three keys:

Sigma-minus, x-bar, %CH.

Boom! It crashes so badly that you have to turn it off to revive. Don't worry; it's harmless to the machine. Full details here: http://holyjoe.net/hp/nnn.htm

Congrats on the new 67.. The model is my all time favorite HP calculator, I have several of them in my arsenal

That calculator is beautiful. I'm quite jealous.

Are you serious about the hand-written note? What an incredible find, if so.

Chjris:

Of course I am joking about the note. Those who know me know I like to yank my friends' chains from time to time
