Good to hear Neil,
But surely no self-respecting engineer would be seen dead with an '=' key!
Those infix toys are for managers and accountants (and backward school
children).
The only down side with the more modern HPs is that they no longer
seem to come with those handy cover loops which let you wear them
on your belt :-(
Assuming that people that use respectable calculators also use
respectable operating systems, 'xcalc -rpn' gives you an HP-10C in
X-Windows.
