These machines bring back a lot of nostalgia for me. I first learned Unix on a HP 9000 550. I played around a bit with an HP 300 and envied the HP 3000 series. Later I went even further back in time and purchased an HP 1000E. It was a lot of fun getting it working but RTE-A was not a very exciting OS. These machines were already quite old when I got a hold of them back in the early 90s.

- mark-r 10y agoI first learned programming on an HP 3000 time-sharing system. Back in the 70's, Basic only. I was quite surprised to see that the line had not stagnated at that point, since that was both my first and last exposure to it.
