Hi.
My dearly beloved Casio FX-850 has finally gone to
calculator heaven (taking everything with it!) But I won't hold that
against it.
If any paleocalcuologists remember this machine
they might be able to guide me to an equivalent modern programmable
calculator. Or am I showing my age? This machine used to do all my
"hand" calcs and I deigned to use RISA etc only when closed formula lengths went
past 8 lines of program ...
Anyway (sniff!) I'd like to get a new one.
I'm tempted to go back to the slide rule, but then I wouldn't be able to take my
10% uncertainty to my customary 8+ decimal places :^). "Personal
PC's" seem, at first sight to be a bit over the top for what I need, however,
....
I will stalk the internet, the local Future
Shops etc., even the message archives, but if you have any advice, I am a
willing listener.
Thanks.
