GDMSL-21. However, we’d be pleased to have you try this remarkable little answer machine at our expense
HEWLETT PACKARD ADVANCED PRODUCTS – 10900 Wolfe Road. Cupertino. California 95014. Telephone 408-257-7000 If you concur in this 300-year-old opinion, meet the first pocket calculator that speaks your language. We’ve christened this tiny, nine-ounce brainchild the HO-35 Pocket Calculator. I like to think of it as an electronic slide rule.

15 rivers to cross… and only 7 bridges! Here’s how we were able to bring you… The GRANADA! In spite of bandits, jaguars, baby dinosaurs and high water… at a price that will make a happy bandit out of YOU! I used to think that the only way to have a real adventure anymore was to be an astronaut or something. But that was before my recent trip to the Hidden Valley in Honduras, where the alluvial soil is six feet deep and everybody and his brother carries a six-shooter for bandit insurance. Maybe you thought I just sit around writing letters to my good customers and wrapping cigar boxes […]
