Hi, Michael:

Based exclusively in actual day-to-day use, these are mine:

1) HP-71B

2) HP-71B

3) HP-71B

Fitted with Math, HP-IL and JPC ROMs (plus 256 Kb RAM) it's utterly unbeatable in terms of power and ease of use and I actually do use it extensively *every day* for all my quick'n'dirt computational needs on the go, with power to spare.

Plus I can understand and modify my code months later without needing to document it extensively beforehand. Even third parties have no great trouble to understand it, if needed. Try that with RPL.

The 71B was a dream for me in the late 80s and early 90s when I learned to program in basic on my Comodore C64 and later using gw basic.
Now that I finally have one, I still love it, but unfortunately I hardly ever do any basic programming in anger these days and am to used to RPN to do any number crunching with the 71B.
Would a Forth ROM give me a proper RPN calculator?
