I use a HP28S, which I got by trading a HP97 that I bought at a flea market for €3.50 8) |

I have PA4TIM, through grad school. I use all the Sharp series, until the 1262. The 1211 I used the Radio Shack version. --- Quote from: PA4TIM on November 10, 2012, 10:06:49 am ---Nobody experience with the sharp pc-1500 or 1211 ? --- End quote --- |

I just saw this topic and like to add my experience. When I was at university I started with HP28, than followed by HP28s, 48SX and finally the great 48GX. When my 48SX broke (this year) I looked for a replacement and thought about getting either HP50g or the TI-nspire and unfortunately bought the HP50g. Like robrenz said, after using HP48, the HP50g is a big disappointment. If I had to decide again I would get the TI. Its a shame that my almost 20 year old HP48GX (which I still use every day in my office and emulated on all of my PCs) seems still to be the best (at least HP) calculator ever. |

I have a 48GX app. It was a frightning complex thing at first, could not even found pi, but i found a HP tutorial manual and I begin to get it and like it more and more. Not so much for normal work, the 15C of 35/35S is more easy for this but the solve function is super because I can give the variables meaningfull names and see them in the screen, highlight the unknown one and press solve. Very handy. I was in doubt about buying a 50G but it is rather expensive and I allready have a bunch of usefull calculators. But I really do need the solve function and on my other HPs it is not very userfriendly ( for me) I have to write down the program labels and variable names somewhere otherwise i never find them back. So i probably should look for a 48GX. |
