      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.

          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.....

          I was thinking more of Silver Blaze[^]. However the other book by Mark Haddon was excellent.

                            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've still got my FX-7000G[^] which I do use; though not daily. It is over 20 years old and is on I think the 4th or 5th set of batteries. But it is one powerful calculator! :-D

                                          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)
