      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.

                    Yes, I use my TI-84+ quite regularly. Partly, I suspect, because I have it right here on my desk, so it's easy to grab it and calculate something like 22-7 (yes, I know) or factor(1729) (not a standard function) Faster than going to wolfram alpha..

                      When I was working on accounting software I had a separate calculator. When I needed to make sure a transaction tied out, it was nice to just be able to reach over and start typing rather than try to use calc.exe. I left that calculator when I left that job and haven't missed it...

                        At work I have a cheap one for quick calculations. At home I have a HP11 that I have had for around 20 years. Except when I forget to use reverse Polish it is great.

                          I have a solar powered calculator in my flight bag. Much easier to use than the tools they suggest using for calculating time and distance.

                          Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost

                              Yes, I use one of these. I also have a TI-83+, but I haven't really used it since college (sometimes I use calc.exe).

                                      I still have an original Casio CQ-81, that is 33 years old (2nd or 3rd battery, tho). It can do time calculations! [Casio CQ-81]

                                        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)

                                        Casio fx-5000F, bought it in 1989 because the Assembly teacher said we'd need a calculator that did base 16. It's on its third set of batteries. But for everyday use I use my Casio watch. The one on the phone is a PITA.

                                          That's silly... Gotta be able to change old habits! - Windows+R calc. - Or a small app on W7 gadgets for more adanced stuff... - Or I'll just compile some code and write out the result..
