Hi, netters...

I recently acquired a now-out-of-production calculator, a Hewlett Packard
model 16C.  This calculator is an excellent programmer's calculator, as
I knew it a few years ago.  It works fine and all that, but I'm not sure
of some of the functions.  

Is there anyone out there who has or had one of these calculators and it's
broken/lost/stolen/etc, and you don't have any use for the manuals anymore?

If so, I'd be willing to pay the shipping if you would send them to me
so I can use this calculator....	

If worse comes to worst, does anyone know how or where I can contact HP to
get a replacement manual?

Thanks in advance...!

it's hardly been used at all.  Now she's wants to sell it and is

As far as PC magazines go I like PC Computing. I find the articles
very relevant, even though they do have the "100 ways to underline
text in WP 5.1" articles. 

If you want to _buy_ a computer you will find PC Sources incredibly 
useful. What I'd do is get a subscription and donate the older issues
to the local public library.. it _IS_ 90% ads, but the other 10% will
help you save money and make wise purchases.

What the chips say is not really useful in determining what your memory is.
Look at the way the chips are on the motherboard. Are they on their own
separate little cards that are plugged into the motherboard? Or are the
individual chips plugged into the motherboard itself?

If they are on their own removable mini boards, what do the connections
to the motherboard look like? How many chips are there on each little card?
If there are 9 and the connections are similar to that of your expansion
cards (though on a smaller scale) then those are most likely SIMMs. If 
there are fewer than 9 chips and the connections are like little wires
that extend out of the card, then you probably have SIPs (less common
than SIMMs).

This is fairly accurate. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

E-mail as well, I can receive, but not send.

In the last couple of days, I sent faxes asking the following mail order
companies for the prices of the Toshiba 3300SL and some accessories
(shipment to Miami/FL):

PCs Compleat             J&R Computer World
Willoughby's             CompUSA (Miami/FL retail shop)
47th Street Photo        Computer Options
Unitek                   USA FLEX (two faxes)
S&W Computers            United Computer Express
MicroSolutions

So far, only the following companies bothered to reply (lowest price
first):
1) MicroSolutions        2) PCs Compleat (offer lowest price guarantee)
3) United Comp. Expr.    4) Comp. Opt. (listed wrong memory expansion)

Have any of you shared this experience when asking for quotations? The
companies who didn't reply don't seem to need my business (and gave me a
good impression how seriously take their customer service).

I signed onto Prodigy a little while ago, and one of the "highlights" was
that Prodigy was changing their rates. Thinking they were coming to their
senses and lowering them, I quickly jumped to this message. No suck luck...
Now the monthly non-term rate is $14.95. BUT, for a limited time you can
lock onto the old rate for a year, and at the end of this time you will
have to start paying the new rate. It works out to $12.95/month if you pay
a year in advance. I myself have a term plan that expires in Nov., but I
think I'll cancel *P*, because this is the last straw. As others have
mentioned, you sometimes have to sit through an animated advertisement that
takes forever to go by. Surely they must be making more money than ever
before on advertising, so why not lower the rates!!
 
There will also be an internet connection available soon to Dos users for
an "additional fee". (how much of an addition I wonder) Mac and windows
users will have to wait till next year. They also will offer offline e-mail
composition, a self serving thing they try to make sound so great... 

Someone also mentioned that the keyboard locks out during the
advertisements, but there is a program I got for my mac from an ftp site
that allows uploading of text as well as typing ahead called *P* to disk.
All well and good, but you still have to sit through the ads no matter
what. 

I find myself using *P* less and less these days anyways and with their e-
mail limit of 30 per month and the raised rate who needs it! Come November
it's goodbye *P*!

I have seen yesterday in a kind of stock liquidator's shop two original
boxes of IBM's Xenix for the PC/XT. It was an excellent release, solid,
polished, efficient, very small memory demands (it would happily run in
astandard XT, no expanded memory, a *maximum* of 640KB). Rochkind used
it to write the 'Advanced Unix Programming' book.

Highly recommended; it made an XT equivalent to a PDP-11/34, which could
easily run 5 users without problems, and imperceptible response time.

IMHO ther are four major mags out ther. 

1) PC Magazine  lots of adds some articals mostly about IBM stype PCs
2) PC Worls - less adds more articals about IBM type PCs
3) PC Connection - still less adds, more articals for non-power users
                   still IBM type PCs
4) Byte - medium adds, covers most type PC (Mac, Amiga, IBM, specials)

I know that there are other mags that specialize for Macs, unix, etc
but these are the best (I subscribe to all four)

: Hi!
:I have a serious problem here. I have to buy a computer soon, but I can't 
:decide between the Mac ][si and the LC ][. I am a university student, and
:so I am able to buy either one at a low price. Even so, the ][si is about
:$350 more than the LC ][. I am an engineering student. Help?
:

I noticed this too.  Here in Chicago we non-students are able to buy
both Macs at low price, too.

1)  Bear in mind that the LC II not only prices its CPU cheaper, you
have the option of adding a mere 12" monochrome if you like for just
$200 (as opposed to $400 for the color 12" and $600 for the color 13").
I have yet to see a IIsi with a 12" by the way.  Do people buy them
that way, or are they prohibited because the si doesn't support it?

2)  The LC II is a very speedy computer.  I use a Classic and wish I
had it for things like desktop publishing.  I would think of LC II as
occupying the high end for personal use and the si as the low end
for business use.

Just my thoughts.

Hi.

I am planning on subscribing to a computer magazine, but I'm having trouble
deciding which magazine to subscribe to.  I own a 486DX PC, so I'm obviously
interested in getting articles, software reviews, etc., on the subject of PC
computers.  However, I'm also interested in receiving news and info on other
systems such as Mac, Unix, etc.

I find that most of the magazines I see on the shelf are 90% advertisements and
software/hardware reviews.  I would like to subscribe to a magazine that
actually contains some good articles.  I want to know what's happening out
there.

Any suggestions?
