BTW; I never tried to go over to TI but I did try the 71b. HP's survey ROM for the 71 was a big improvement over the one for the 41, and John Rush's Extratra 71 was outstanding, but that = key made it a nightmare for me to use outside the program.

Den, I must admit that I never tried to replace my HP with a TI, but I did buy a TI once, back then the TI had a very complete application for both mechanical and electrical engineers, everybody was using it back then (a lot of people still do) so I naturally wanted to own one, however soon after I bought it I realized that I kept reaching for my HP, the app alone wasnt enough motivation to use the TI, after a while I mostly quit using the TI, I still own it, but sadly its just collecting shelf dust.
