Hello!

I haven't got to the programming section yet, so those are just first impressions.

Wait till you are at the programming section and then you will know why people sell it so cheap. If I wouldn't have mine for the sake of a complete collection I would actually pay someone to get it as far away from me as possible (that would be New Zealand I guess) ;-) There are two kinds of humans: Those who love RPL (the "programming language" used in these calculators) and those who detest it. There is nothing in between...

But I actually like the clamshell design and the proper alpha keyboard of these calculators. If only they would have used BASIC as programming language!

Max
