[rescue] HP 85

[Lionel Peterson]

I remember those from when they were released, and just saw one running at VCFSW a week or so ago, neat systems. I forgot how tiny the screen was!

I thought they booted/ran off the tape drive, wasn't aware of disk options... I assume it attaches with IEEE-488 bus? Or was it an internal option?
