By the way... someone talked about talking to HP to see about getting a
"hobbyist" license or something for TSB. Please PLEASE can whoever takes up
this task... make SURE it isn't limited to the SIMH simulator like RT11 is?
I'd sure like to have it worded so my emulator can run the stuff too
legally.
