INTEREX is the International Association of Hewlett Packard Computer
Users. It is independent of, but supported by, Hewlett Packard itself,
(in marked contrast I believe to DECUS, the Digital Equipment
equivalent). It supports both 3000 and 1000 series users, and to some
extent (growing), 9000 series users. INTEREX publishes a newsletter,
technical journals for the 3000 and the 1000 series machines, and
supports a contributed software library.

My experience has been with the 1000, and at the time I was last in
contact the CSL was rapidly increasing in quality and usefulness. The CSL
software is not, of course, supported in the usual sense. INTEREX
membership is, to a system programmer or manager, good value for money.
Cost to my previous employer for corporate membership was app. 350 UK
pounds sterling per annum, which included an annual CSL library tape,
2-monthly TC Interface (the 1000-series journal), and all conference
reports for the 1000 series.

INTEREX are at 680 Almanor Avenue
               Sunnyvale,
               California   CA 94086-3513
               USA

               (408) 738-4848

but have offices in most countries. There are often national offshoots
also.

Hope this helps.
