RE: Calculator Wars at your School
At my school, early to mid 1980's, the standard calc was the HP11 with about 30 users. Its bitter rivals were 2 people each with HP41's and the TRS80 PC-4. The courses were instructed to the HP11, so having a different calc/computer meant you were on your own.
EDIT: Those of us with PC-4s were instantly recognizable by the Radio Shack cordless telephone case we wore on our belts to house the PC4.
