Me neither. That was the era of vinyl records and one knew very well how to treat delicate storage media :-) But I had my father's Hp-67 for comparison whose card reader worked much more consistently than that of my Ti59.

But it had AOS which I personally prefer over RPN (if I am allowed to write that here...). And the keyboard was indeed a bit bouncy, but no calculator keyboard ever made before or after that time matched that of the pre 1980 HP calculators.
