Calculators

Does anybody still use them? I do, I have one of These[^] that I use most days. I am sitting in front of a computer all day, but sometimes just reach for this as it is easier than switching apps, plus I can type faster. Who else? (Btw this calc is 13 years old. Original Battery, Never gone wrong and cost £5)

I think it is excellent. It is made by the Dr Who team when they are not making Dr Who. I think Cumberbatch (Holmes) would make an excellent Dr Who.

I just switched on my circa-1978 Sharp EL-5808 scientific calculator to make sure it still works. It does. :) /ravi

I had to show my son how to use one of them, and he just didn't 'get' it. He found it funny that you had to remember the orders of magnitude as you went along. Kids today huh! I had an old physics professor who used the line "Don't worry, the calculations are easy, you will not need to dunk your slide rules in a bucket of water to cool them down". :)

I've seen the first 2 episodes of the last series via LoveFilm discs. But the dog got to the packet containing the final episode and did for it.... So I've either got to rent it again or stream it... But found it very good indeed.

It's been a long time since I bought one but I still have one of these[^] that I use at least once or twice a month.
Henry Minute Do not read medical books! You could die of a misprint. - Mark Twain Girl: (staring) "Why do you need an icy cucumber?" “I want to report a fraud. The government is lying to us all.” I wouldn't let CG touch my Abacus! When you're wrestling a gorilla, you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is.
I'd thought you'd be more at home with one of these[^].
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett

Not quite as old but I once used one of these[^] and it's bigger brother[^].

No that was "The curious incident of a large white German Shepherd and the antagonising postman waving the package through the letter box while the missus was out", not such a catchy title and now we have a post-box on the front of the house.... The former is an excellent book and can recommend "A spot of bother" too.....
