I must confess. When I took my first position (here at the University of
Arkansas), I purchased a used Monroe (mechanical calculator) to take with
me for personal use. The Monroe was smaller and lighter than the Fridens I
had been used to, but it served me well. It cost me $75 back then, and I
still have it here in my office, although I admit I haven't used it in
quite some time.

:-) I've still got my first electronic calculator.
:-) It was a steal at only $125 (1970's dollars ;-),
:-) and actually had one memory register and a square root function!
:-) It replaced my trusty circular slide rule.
