  13. Instruction HCF (Halt and Catch Fire) I understood to be part of HOS, that
  14. is, Hostile Operating System.  If Dennis Boylan reads this, perhaps he
  15. would be so kind as to dig up and post and/or mail a copy of the whole
  16. thing.  This was an item I saw floating around Georgia Tech sometime in the
  17. late 70s.
