Had to hard reset hp41cx, similar experiences?

[Garth Wilson]

I got my 41cx Halfnut in 1986. I've never needed a hard reset. and the only crashes I've had were when I was new to synthetic programming and in my inexperience I apparently told it to run off a cliff, to which it responded with "MEMORY LOST" and started clean, ready to go. I've had a couple of programs in my 41 now continuously, without ever reloading, for over 25 years now. Perhaps the Halfnuts are less susceptible to static discharge than the Coconuts were.
