re: shuttle image bits

If you are referring to the split wire-frame/temperature-gradient  color image
of the shuttle,  that was  developed  years ago for  Hewlett-Packard  (for the
intro of the  now-obsolete  HP9845C).  I see from the trade  magazines that it
has  been  widely  stolen/imitated  since  (although  its  not  clear  that we
copyrighted the data).

The bits have been used in all HP98xx and HP9000  demos since.  Anyone at your
site who has a 9845C, Series 200 (9816, 9817, 9920, 9826, 9836, 9837) BASIC or
Series 500 (9020) BASIC system may have the demo software.

Regards,                                                Hewlett-Packard
