Cool! That is the second "Special Edition" HP 15c. Hopefully I get one this time... I own an original HP 11c and a new implementation of the HP 12c. The HP 15c is a pretty cool calculator, indeed. Apparently this series of calculators is so beautiful, because the height/width ratio uses the golden ratio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio). Regards, Vitor |

Swiss Micros https://www.swissmicros.com/products has two versions that emulate the original -hp- 15C. The smaller one (credit-card size) is their "DM15" The larger one (similar size to the original) is their "DM15L" Reviews: https://jepspectro.com/htm/dm15.htm |

I've never cared much for the landscape HP calculators. Too hard to hold in hand while using. I much prefer the portrait format. |
| TimFox:
SwissMicros has two portrait-format units, the DM41X and DM42. See link above for their product line. |

HP15C Collector's Edition www.thecalculatorstore.com --- End quote --- It must be darn expensive to print those trigonometric function names onto the key caps. Makes the 15C nearly twice as expensive as the 12C from the same company. :-\ By the way, these are no longer made by HP, but by Czech company Moravia under a brand license. Maybe that's why the calculators no longer bear the "Hewlett Packard" name in the lower left, but only the HP logo in the upper right? https://hpcalcs.com/product/hp-15c-collectors-edition/ What I like better in these replicas vs. the SwissMicros is the shape of the keys. These seem to have the proper prism/wedge shape, while SwissMicros uses flat keys throughout to my knowledge. |
