It probably won't happen soon enough to help you, but as you know I've 
been tracing out schematics of some of the HP machines... There's a 9836 
(and for that matter that 50960 I mentioned the other day) on the 'to be 
pulled apart' pile. I must finish the 9845B and its monitor first, then I 
might well turn to one of the 68K machines...
