what do you think of the HP 92?

[Dave Britten]

Back on the subject of the 92/97/etc., I really like the keys they used on the Topcat models. Pretty much all my other LED units have needed at least a little (or a lot of) keyboard contact cleaning, but the 97 is flawless. And the buffered input works great.

It's also rather fortunate that the battery packs aren't too hard to rebuild. I just cut open the old pack, removed the old cells, and put some metal contacts at each end so I can drop in a set of 4 sub-C NiMHs. When I need to recharge, I just pull them out and stick them in a typical smart charger.

But there is of course the matter of Achilles' printer gear...
