If your old IBM PC IEEE 488 card is one that is compatible with HPDrive
http://hp9845.net/9845/projects/hpdrive/ you can use it to emulate a
wide variety of HPIB storage several of which are compatible with the 80
series machines. I am using the Linux version on a Pentium II based
industrial computer with ISA National Instruments cards and it out
performs a real 9135C by quite a bit.

Can you use one of those with the old IBM PC IEEE interface card?. Has
this been covered here? I did not check but I guess the answer would be
maybe. Those drives are 720 each 3.5".

I just got my HP-85 working for the first time over the weekend (except
for its tape drive, which is still a work in progress). I'd like to acquire
some accessories for it:
1) HP 82903A 16k RAM module
2) HP 9122C dual 1.44M 3.2" floppy diskette drive
Do any of y'all have either of those items available for swap or sale? I'm
located in southern California.
Those two items are at the top of my HP-85 want list, but I might also be
interested in other related bits such as the 82940A GPIO Interface, other
compatible HPIB mass storage, etc.
