What keystroke-programmables can handle a fully self-scoring game of Yahtzee?
I was looking through assorted programs last night and came across this Yahtzee adaptation for the 41/42, complete with automated scoring:

It got me wondering, what other keystroke programmables are up to this task? Given the length of the program, I doubt the 67/97 could handle it - at least not on a single card, and I don't know that it's a game that could be done elegantly on multiple cards.

The TI-59, on the other hand, seems like it might have enough memory for Yahtzee, and I'm certain the TI-95 would. (8 kilobytes!)

Maybe the DM15L running the firmware with expanded memory? It's got something like 232 registers, which is about 3.5 times as much as a typical 15C. And I'll bet most of the various HP desktop calculators could as well.
