Hi, Bob, thanks for your comments.
I agree that for basic number calculations the HP-15C is over the top by featuring matrix, complex numbers and offering solver, among other niceties.

What I was expecting was a lower street price on the HP-11C when compared to the HP-15C, but my observation since at least one year ago is that this is not the case.
The perceived value for these machine series is very high, no matter what model we chose. Even a 10C can have a final auction price as high as a 15C or a 16C.
