Oh My, what has the world come to...
Please tell that to those who spent the equivalent of $5,000 back in 1974 for an HP-65.

Serious professionals are attracted to good tools of the trade.
If they have to use a lesser machine for some arcane rules in an exam, so be it - likely temporarily.

What machine do you think they will choose for the remainder of their professional career?

I never thought I would have to use my non programmable calculators again and then I had to take a test and only non programmable were allowed. It was like going from a Ferrari to a Fiat cinquecento….
The price for most HPs is justified, not so sure about HP35 though but the rest, yeah
they still rock.
