HHC 2008 HHC List Test

Thu Feb 21 07:39:47 PST 2008

Hello Ted,

Thanks for the offer to help.  

We have to make a choice reasonably soon because HP is revamping some of their 
facilities and we need to lock in our choice.  I favor Corvallis because we hope to 
make a 2009 Calendar with HP people as the theme.

X < > Y,

Richard

    Hello Everyone,

    I hope that we can use the HHC List this year for HHC discussions, announcements, etc.

    This is an initial test to determine who is still subscribing.  Send me a quick email if you receive this.  You might also give the list URL to friends who may have unsubscribed or would be interested and subscribing.

    Here is some news, just in case you haven't heard.

    1.  HP has started a Calculator newsletter called HP Solve.  You "subscribe" by signing up and receiving a size limited email version with links to the web version.  You may also download the "complete" newsletter as a *.pdf file.  February was the first "issue" and the HP Solve editor is restructuring it to better reflect the current HP thinking and to respond to feedback.  See HP Solve at:

    http://h20331.www2.hp.com/Hpsub/cache/580500-0-0-225-121.html

    2.  Those of you that attended HHC 2007 will know that the HP Calculator division has a new General Manager.  You may get some information about Wing at the HHC 2007 web site announcement at:

    http://holyjoe.org/hhc2007/HP%20Calculator%20Division%20News.pdf

    The newsletter provides links to Wing's Blog at:

    http://h20325.www2.hp.com/blogs/cheung

    3.  The HHC 2008 committee hasn't been formed (it is a bit early in the year) 

    but after the success of HHC 2007 at the HP San Diego Conferences facilities 

    we have some similar HP options to consider.  These are at HP Conference 

    Facilities at:  Vancouver, WA; Corvallis, OR; Boise, ID, and again at San 

    Diego, CA.  Please include your choice in your "listening" confirmation 

    email to me.

    4.  CES, the Consumer electronics Show, is an annual event held early in  January in Las Vegas.  HP has a Corporate booth and the various product groups participate with their own island booths.  HP had their calculator booth and it was a BIG improvement over the staid 35th anniversary CES booth of 2007.  Wing was there, as he mentions in his Blog, and I think that he is getting  up to speed with respect to the importance of HP calculators getting greater exposure.  HP Solve will provide information on the many increased other trade shows that HP will be participating in this year.

    5.  JKH news.  As you may - or may not - know Joseph Horn has been "missing" 

    from the news group, his web sites, etc.  He is on medical leave and he was expected 

    to be on the East Coast for treatment for about six months.  I have heard that he 

    has had surgery and that it went well.  It should not be much longer before we hear 

    from him once again on the news group, etc., because the six months is just about 

    up.

    That is it for now.

    X < > Y,

    Richard
