I worked with Dave when I first arrived in HP. He was one of the masterminds in my world then, and I haven't changed my opinion at all. Those were great years!

There's enough material here for a full documentary. Thank you for this crucial history--the shrinking of the math specific computer to a pocket and incidental beneficial exploitation of the new semiconductor technology.

Outstanding interview. Watched every minute with intent. Fascinating look into HP late 60s and early 70s. What a product the HP35 was (is).

Blessed to work with Dave C during Maxtor time and also Seagate. We work together in Asia Pacific to set-up numerous engineering innovations and processes. Regards to you Dave.

Wow, really enjoyed listening to such person. Brings back fond memories. Thanks.

wow! complete joy watching this video!

Absolutely fascinating! I thought I'd skim through it, but couldn't take my ears off. ;-) Thanks for posting.

2021 jan 26 - on Ebay is a HP35 SN 1143A03625 (famous RED DOT model with software bug). Bid is US$1200 and climbing.

Wow, what a great inside look at an American icon!

DrWmPierceAudio: There is a very brief mention at about the 45:15 mark that Packard was at that time working in Washington as the deputy secretary of defense.

have a USA made 1143A series 31201 (just after RED DOT), got it at garage sale or who knows where, need new battery cells. and need a power supply, back cover not damaged by disassembly

Great interview! A shame that even being videoed relatively recently (2007 - the same year the first iphone came out), the resolution is that of a cabbage.

The words are fully intelligible and the full story comes through at full resolution. I also, incidentally, like cabbage.
