Subject: MARC

Hello,

       My name is Jay Phillips.  I work for Hewlett Packard's Personal
Computer Division in Corvallis, Oregon.  I've been a CP/M hacker for 
several years and a UNIX hacker more recently.  I was also responsible
for the software portion of HP's CP/M system for the HP86 and 87 computers.
I have been following with great interest the news traffic about MARC.
I was wondering if there is any way for me to get a copy of it, possibly
as a test site.  I would like to bring MARC up on our CP/M system (it is
a Z80 card which plugs into the HP86 or 87 mainframe, similar to the apple
Z80 softcard.  A large majority of our customers are technical/engineer
types and I feel that there would be a good demand for MARC running on our
machines.
       Please send me a note letting me know what you think about this.
My UUCP address is below.
       Thanks much.

               Jay Phillips

P.S.   If you are familiar with Berkeley UNIX you no doubt are aware of
       a massive game called Rogue.  We were intrigued by it here and 
       have been working on a version written in BDS C for CP/M.  It's
       roughly 90% done.  Unfortunately, I can't convince my boss to 
       fund it as a project so it only gets worked on in my spare time.
       I would also like to bring it up under MARC.

                                       Jay

P.P.S.
       If U.S. Snail or telephone is more convenient, the particulars
       follow.
