And for free you can have the classic hp41 running on your windoze desktop and/or your pocketpc. The folks actually use the roms from the real hp41 and wrote a processor to emulate the machine. It therefore works EXACTLY like the original. Great stuff. See them both at http://www.hp41.org Having used HP machines since that day in 1972 when my slide rule went into the desk drawer replaced by the hp-35, I have always carried an HP machine in my shirt pocket where the pocket protecter had been before that. I have found a machine that I like a little better than the hp41 because of it's ability to do math in lots of different number systems including time. It is only $11.85 and has a version for both windoze and pocketpc. See it at http://www.calculator.org . Highly recommended. Enjoy!

Re: [Flexradio] CAT CONTROL CHECK BOX P3 P4
I've always thought that using a RPM calculator is a sign of a great mind. :-P I still have all my HP calculators in like new condition, except the case of my 15C it's taken a beating but the calculator itself is in mint shape. No worn out keys, they sure don't build them like that anymore. The batteries died recently, this morning I'm running errands and will be looking for replacement batteries, I hope I can find them. I'm so used to RPN that I really slow down if I have to use a regular calculator, I keep looking for the enter key My HP-41C has the all the accessories and tapes, all in mint condition, maybe in 10 years I'll put them up on EBay.

Re: [Flexradio] CAT CONTROL CHECK BOX P3 P4
I'd like to second Phil's comment on Bob's story WOW! When TI introduced the Datamath 4 banger I bought one via a friend that worked at TI at half of retail price, but as I remember that was still quite pricy. After buying one more TI, I've owned nothing but H-P's. When I was taking my Extra exam, (using my H-P 11C) I paused to think that the first time I worked those reactance, and resonance equations and did polar - rectangular conversions, I was doing them with a slip stick, trig tables, and log tables. Sure was easier to push just a couple of buttons. Hand me down my walking cane. Bill Philip M. Lanese [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/05/05 01:11PM Two very nice posts Bob. Glad to see the responses to my mention of RPN. New engineering graduates I have mentored on recent jobs had never heard the term.

Re: [Flexradio] CAT CONTROL CHECK BOX P3 P4
RPN is the natural way to think, it's also the way computers work. Once you work with RPN it's more difficult to work with 'standard' calculators. In fact it's much more difficult to create a standard calculator than it is to create RPN, but the basic calculator chips are now so cheap it makes little difference. Youngsters today...

Re: [Flexradio] CAT CONTROL CHECK BOX P3 P4
This is a very good explanation of RPN, and it,s associate languange Forth. For years I worked with the HP 11C in RPN and still have two HP11C calculators which I use on a daily basis, as well as doing a lot of programming in Forth. This article brings back the good old times. The Forth language is reviewed and explained very well and many links to Forth interests are listed.

As well as a HP42S (my dearest). http://home.planet.nl/~demun000/thomas_projects/free42/ During college time in a final exam day, I forgot my 42S at home. I ran to the bookstore and to my surprise, they had the 42S in stock. It saved the day. I still have both of them and one is here right next to my keyboard. It is one of the most useful tools I ever had. 73, -- Edson richard allen wrote: And for free you can have the classic hp41 running on your windoze desktop and/or your pocketpc.
