From 1988 to 2005 Robelle produced a monthly newsletter
on the state of the HP server world, as well tips and
announcements about our software products.
We haven't produced a newsletter on a regular basis for several years,
mainly because the rate of news items in our industry niche had dimmished greatly and Ron Seybold was doing a good job on industry
news at the 3000 Newswire. However, this page contains an archive of the
Robelle newsletters, starting from 1988 (before that they were hand-typed and
copied).

The First Newsletter
Although this web archive only goes back to
1988, the newsletter
has been published continuously since
October 6, 1980. Bob Green returned from
attending the International HP Conference in
Montreux, Switzerland and discovered that he
had notes on quite a few interesting HP 3000
developments that were not known in North
America. Bob edited two pages of his notes, printed them on the line printer
(UPPER-CASE only!) and mailed them to the Robelle
customers. Response was instantaneous and enthusiastic: give
us more news and tips about the HP 3000 world.
Here is one of the items from that first newsletter in 1980:
HP REVEALED SOME DETAILS OF MPE IV (TO BE RELEASED NEXT YEAR):
OVERLAPPED SEEKS, MULTIPLE DISC CONTROLLERS AND CHANNELS,
PERFORMANCE MONITORING TOOLS, ENHANCED DEBUG, SIGNIFICANT
PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT THROUGH BETTER DISC I/O AND THE
ABILITY TO SPREAD VIRTUAL MEMORY, INTERPROCESS COMMUNICATION, ETC.
