Will do; I don't remember spending much on them.

You want "mkrecovery". That will give you a bootable tape which can be
used to restore your system to its current state. I'm not an HP-UX nerd,
though, so check the man pages for caveats.

That I can't answer, but offhand, I suspect the answer is, "not unless
they're physically compatible." Not every 700-series system uses the
72-pin ECC RAM found in the 715, but more than that I couldn't tell you.
