If you really want to be unique, chamber up a wildcat.

Back in college, I used a RPN HP calculator. No one ever asked to use it more than once.

Had that mind set ever since.

same here, however at the machine shop I work at, about 70% of the people here use RPN

If you let her make this one decision, she's gonna wanna make two. You can't live with that.

An HP 41CV took me through four years of college and several years of work after that. RPN rocks!

To this day I can only use an HP with what we termed "Reverse Polish Logic". All other calculators are way too time consuming.

Sadly, I immediately recalled my TI55 that I haven't thought about in 35 years

I have a Ti-35 I got in 1985 and yep, they don't make 'em like that anymore. Now it's just an app on a smartphone.

As the thread has developed a parallax to the original OP....

MatLab vs Mathmatica ?

Hey, I still use my TI-55III which I bought for my '80s apprenticeship. Hope that counts.
