Names of the HP48g, HP49G and HP49g+/HP50g case designers

[Mikederocher]

Hi all,

Just to chime in here, I was indeed the industrial designer at HP in Corvallis who designed the physical product for the 48 series. The 48s/sx were my first project there, followed by the g/gx and then onto the palmtops and first omnibooks.

The soft carry case was created externally, as an FYI, based on some sketches.

I’m still at HP leading a design team in 3D Printing. Let me know what questions you may have about the late ‘80s to mid ‘90s calculator and palmtop designs, before it went to Singapore.

Cheers,
Mike Derocher
