New User... Greetings and

[Condo]

I'm happy to have found this site, and to say Hi.
I've owned an HP 41CX since I bought it in 1984. It still works great. Though my enthusiasm for HP calculators has been in remission until last month.

I was looking through my company's office products dumping ground cabinet; full of old staplers, pens, and desk organizers (not in the building I usually work in) and discovered an HP-42S in its original case! The batteries were dead, but once replaced, fired right up. Now I'm learning as much as I can from this wonderful site and have a 34S on the way. I wish I had my interested rekindled a few years ago but better late than never.
