The HP-65 is a "classic"

It sounds like you know the future already. Anything can happen so the HP 50g technically could be a classic.

To me, the HP-65 is NOT a classic. I was born in the 90's. I never grew up with it, used it, or seen it in person. I have no attachment to it whatsoever. In fact, that large ENTER key is not a classic look to me because I grew up use to small ENTER keys. (I do favor the large ENTER key though).

I am currently growing up with the HP 50g as we speak (or type?). I am tackling university with it and constantly programming it on my spare time. You can bet I will regard it as a classic 30 years down the road.

Do you get it? What deems a "classic" is mostly a personal matter.

I believe that this post reflects your beliefs more than anything. And I disagree with it completely. However, I will approach any argument with an open mind.
