Sadly doesn’t work anymore as it was dropped and damaged. Found it at an ewaste site with the idea to build an ITX pc inside with a little DIY digital oscilloscope replacing the screen connected to the audio out so you can see the wave form as you listen to music or play games

    Very cool. I’ve got an HP 1740a, which is pretty similar. The 1740a was introduced in 1967. Mine was dumpster dived from just outside the physics department building at a local university. I was lucky that the only issue it had was just that the power button sticks a little bit. It’s barely a problem. I haven’t used it as much as I ought to. I really ought to do more hardware hacking projects.
