Differences between the HP 15c CE and the original HP-15C

[ThomasF]

Hi Gene!

Thanks for a great comparison between the two calculators!

How is it with "synthetics" on the CE? This is (obviously) not mentioned in the Owner's Handbook ...
Will it behave as the original calculator, or is this door into the internals lost in the new one (I assume it is)?
If so, maybe we have to find a new passage into the machine ...

I.e. does the "rotate" function work on the CE?
* Enter "12345" into X (don't press enter)
* Turn off
* Press "Y^X" while turning on
* Press f PREFIX --> Display will show "00010048P1" if rotate works

This works fine on my original HP-15C, and also e.g. on the go15c app for Android

Cheers,
Thomas
