Isn't that just y2k patches, not the whole os?

If you want to upgrade a workstation:

http://www.hp.com/visualize/programs/y2k/y2k_menu/y2k_upgr/oskit.html

"contact your HP Order Fulfillment Contact, your Sales Representative,
or your HP Authorized Reseller"

Does anyone know if you can order this on the web / by email?

Yes...not only that, at least some of the patches are *OLD*, much
older than you'd expect.  The kit came with 1 OS patch disk and
3 "Application" patch disks (10.01/10.10, 10.20, and 11.00).  
IIRC, the two patches I looked at on the OS patch disk were 
about a year out of date (PDCINFO and ?).

The site mentioned above seems aimed at people on support contracts,
although I'm not sure about that.

I ordered my 10.20 upgrade via:
http://www.software.hp.com/y2kupgrades/swp_upgrades.html

And, you can do it online.

Only problem is that that's for series 800 servers, and I have a
series 700 (710) workstation.  ANd you can't select that. :-(

  That's my problem as well, I have a 715/33 with 9.04.  I'd really
prefer to cold install 10.20 versus the heavily patching it route.  Any
links for this?

Hi:

Hate to beat a dead horse but as someone who is clueless about HP-UX where can
I fnd info on the platforms supported and instillation procedures by this
version of the OS.  I have an older one of their para risc boxes and wonder if
if will work ( I seem to remember it has a model number like 712/60 or so-).

Thanks!
