New Arrivals!!!

Note to self: stop buying HPs on eBay while drunk. I'm sure this enforced isolation is sending me stir crazy...



A complete HP•33 C... it's even got a little branded battery box: never seen one of those before... Showed 'Error Pr' when first switched on, but I put fresh batteries in and it worked like a charm. Odd that the continuous memory only conserves programs and storage registers, not the X:, Y:, Z: and T: registers...



An HP•35 (3rd gen, I believe)... pleased to get a complete set. I'm going to take Bob P's and toml's advice and try and touch up the silver bezels using leafing pen...

And, today, finally, I'm going to set up my 3D printer: I think my first project will be to run off some Classic-series battery holders, then an HP•67 battery cover to replace my melted one and then, when I get better at it, I'm going to print a mini NeXT cube to house my Raspberry Pi 4 running GNUSTeP / Windowmaker ;0)

I'd consider the 33C. Looks pretty good and I don't have one.

Hope you have not spent too much

Unfortunately yes, I'm agree, but a luxury at that time to keep stored programs while other folks must rekey them .....
what a miracle, with the 41

Actually, I got them at a bit of a knock-down price... that's what made me spring for them...

If you got the 33C off eBay then you were probably bidding against me

Sorry, 'bout that... :0)

Very nice calculators. And the quarantine is driving me crazy too.
