Well, we're getting a bit far afield from SIMH. We can continue this
offline. Does your "rikers.org" address work?

In defense of Al and the CHM, HP delivered an absolute TON of stuff.
Several gigabytes of tape images from a time when the average file size was
on the order of 5K. Something over 800,000 files, all stored in a variety
of proprietary HP formats. Not to mention fifty or so cartons of
documents.
I suppose that the CHM could simply dump all of this stuff on a DVD, but
without decoders for the formats (which imply getting the HP operating
systems under which they ran up and running on SIMH first), it isn't going
to be of much use. Even just cataloging what's there or scanning the
manuals is a staggering job.
