Can you imagine finding stuff this fun in the current HP documentation? BWAH Hah hah! If this was posted before, forgive me; a Google search didn't find it. -jkh-] Once upon a time, Long, long ago, In a galaxy far, far away: An evil group of programmers called the EMPIRE developed the insidious RESULT KEY in order to aid them in their domination of the galaxy. Led by a man endowed with a malevolent aura, a power that transcends the sciences of reason, a man with a warped conception of programming structure so twisted as to defy comprehension, the dark lord, ROO-MAN. ----- "Catastrophic character assasination, Roo-man! What is this? "I don't know, kid. NASA called us in to see it. Their latest space probe came back with this message engraved on the side of the probe. We must find the OTHER ROO-MAN!" ----- "Diabolic doppelgangers, Roo-man! Who were they? "I don't know, lad. NASA's spy cameras filmed them snooping around their space vaults." "But Roo-man, they looked just like us!" "I know, Joey. We must find the OTHER ROO-MAN & JOEY!!!" --excerpt from the HP-75 Internal Design Specification [They just don't write docs like they used to. -jkh-]
