I'm sure we all have our favorites when we vote for 'best programmable calculator'. But can we possibly agree on that's the worst?

I'll start it off by voting for the Sinclair Programmable.
These adjectives come to mind:
slow, fragile, arcane, inaccurate, uncomfortable.

I think we have, in a sense, become spoiled with HP calculators. They are literally the best of the best. Taking a walk on the "other side of the tracks" so to speak really opens your eyes. At some point you begin to feel sorry for the users of these machines and take a step back from the usual admonishments: "Eww... you're a Casio user?"
