I'm working on my talk about Coyote Graphics for next
week, and I just put in a slide explaining how most of
the people I know still use the IDL start-up file their
graduate student advisor gave them in the mid-1980s. :-)
Cheers,
David
P.S. The more I think about it, the more I think a retro
book about IDL computing in the last half of the 20th
century would have an enormous financial up-side. ;-)

Hi David,
if you need it, I still have my HASP key that came with IDL 3.0. It
should still work, though I do not have a printer port anymore. Have
fun writing the history book. I will read it.
