Gee, I don't see why? :-)

Little-known (and even less cared about) engineer Fred Hewlet built the TI-1450 LED (Law Enforcement Division) "caculator" for use aboard the 1948-49 Packard police cruiser models.

Being that it was 1948, the device took up much of the front passenger position, and the police really didn't know what to do with it, resulting in pretty poor sales turnover. So it's a rarity.
