Calculators you regret buying?

I think the RPL calculators would have had more success if "classic keystroke programming" would have been offered as an alternative to RPL (like the switching between RPN and algebraic mode on later models).
All the users of previous machines (from HP65 to 41/42) would have instantly felt at home on these calcuiators and enjoyed the extra features like unlimited stack, graphics and CAS. But the prospect of having to work one's way through 1000 pages of manual before being able to program the calculator turned away a lot of people, many of them for good.
