Hewlett Packard Hp-85 - this was Hps personal conputer from 1980.  It was an all-in-one design and very cool.


Darn, very tempting.. But I just picked up a TRS-80 4P yesterday for my personal collection.

I was just about to put a C64 and 1541 on eBay, what an awful time to sell anything!  Maybe I should clean the basement next year. Grin.


Spring and early summer are the worst times for retro auctions for some reason. You would be better off waiting for fall/winter.

-edit-
Oh crap, did I just say too cheap again :-? Oops....  :oops:

@ Redrumloa: Welcome to the 4P club! I really only dabble in BASIC on mine, but I adore the machine nonetheless. I even have a printer for it, bigger and heavier than the 4P itself.


Thanks :-) I'll probably set up some CP/M disks for it, just gotta find them online... Chances are I will re-cap it like I did my Televideo TS-803H and I will probably de-yellow both when I have time. It is funny though, "portable computer" eh? The 4P has to be heavier than my SX64 and my Kaypro 10 combined :lol:

Oh BTW, I actually got this from the original owner, with original manuals. You have 4P manuals?
