HP Calculator Bulletin Board System
-----------------------------------

An HP-Corvallis calculator-users' Bulletin Board System (HPCVBBS) is
available for the exchange of software and information among HP calculator
users.  Most of the goodies on this disk came from HPCVBBS.  HPCVBBS
operates at 300/1200/2400 baud, full duplex, no parity, 8 bits, 1 stop bit.
The telephone number is (503) 750-4448.  HPCVBBS is a free service -- you
pay only for the (long-distance) telephone charge (if any).

The Goodies Disk project was begun, however, because most people have
no interest in learning how to use electronic bulletin boards.  And
the few "real programmers" who do, all agree that HPCVBBS has a
complicated, unwieldy, unfriendly and non-intuitive user interface.
In brief, using HPCVBBS is painful.

So some of the goodies that appear on HPCVBBS are made available on
these Goodies Disks.  If you want to join in the fun, and/or get ALL
of the HPCVBBS goodies, give the HP BBS a try.  If you don't know how
to use BBS's, ask any teenager.  And if you don't want to learn it,
that's okay; I plan on compiling these disks until the HP48 becomes
obsolete, so that the really cool stuff will be available to you.
