Show Notes

Interview with Bill Kemper, HP Employee and HP Series 80 Software Engineer

Hello, again, and welcome to episode 68 of the Floppy Days Podcast. This will be a fairly short, interview-only show. As a final piece of the recent series of podcasts on the HP Series 80 family of machines, I was able to sit down and talk with Mr. William Kemper. Bill worked directly on software for the HP Series 80 and later was the manager of software engineering for the line until it was canceled. He then continued on for some time with HP until the merger with Compaq around 2002. In the interview, we discuss Everett Kaser, who worked for Bill, and who was one of my co-hosts for the HP Series 80 podcasts.
