Thank you for your response and the included elaboration. I NEITHER want NOR intend to INHIBIT honest discussion / comparison of calculator features. Your clarified position is reasonable and verifiable. The SR-52 certainly offered more program and data memory than the HP-65: no argument. I am very interested in the various meta-analysis with respect to measurable correlations, as efficiency, utility etc of handhelds and their respective functions. If you have insight and quantifiable observations, please continue your dialog and share the same with all. I have tendered similar arguments in the past with varying degrees of concurrence and rebuttal. I look forward to the opinions and insights of the members, including yours. Again, thank you for your clarification to my initial response.

BEST!
