On the other hand I think he is the darling of his employer and the stockholders of the company. With proper internal connections the calculators (and other products) would easily last many decades. With cheap and crappy technical solutions like zebra connectors and those awful flexible PCB battery terminals of the HP-41C, customers are forced to buy a new calculator every five or ten years...
