re: "HP is no longer able to supply manuals or any other info on Series 500."

This doesn't ring true.  Our general policy is to keep accessories on the
pricelist for a year after mainframe discontinuance, and supplies and repair
parts for 7 to 10 years.  All of the s500 documentation should still be
orderable.

Do you have a part number, or at least a manual title?
