Hello,

	My name is Jay Phillips.  I work for Hewlett Packard's Personal
Computer Division in Corvallis, Oregon.  I've been a CP/M hacker for 
several years and a UNIX hacker more recently.  I was also responsible
for the software portion of HP's CP/M system for the HP86 and 87 computers.
I have been following with great interest the news traffic about MARC.
I was wondering if there is any way for me to get a copy of it, possibly
as a test site.  I would like to bring MARC up on our CP/M system (it is
a Z80 card which plugs into the HP86 or 87 mainframe, similar to the apple
Z80 softcard.  A large majority of our customers are technical/engineer
types and I feel that there would be a good demand for MARC running on our
machines.
	Please send me a note letting me know what you think about this.
My UUCP address is below.
	Thanks much.

P.S.	If you are familiar with Berkeley UNIX you no doubt are aware of
	a massive game called Rogue.  We were intrigued by it here and 
	have been working on a version written in BDS C for CP/M.  It's
	roughly 90% done.  Unfortunately, I can't convince my boss to 
	fund it as a project so it only gets worked on in my spare time.
	I would also like to bring it up under MARC.

					Jay

P.P.S.
	If U.S. Snail or telephone is more convenient, the particulars
	follow.
