>>Do they even make calculators with reverse polish notation anymore?

If they don't, I'm toast. I can't do more than 2-3 operations on an AOS calculator before messing up.

Also, try Excalibur, which is an RPN calculator for your computer. I put it on every machine I use regularly. Vary full-featured.

Ping to my post just above re: Excalibur for you RPN types.

FWIW, the latter half of my college days (GA Tech) were assisted by one of the original HP-41Cs.

Not to worry with the ol' Ti-59. They made an RPM emulator module for it. I actually have one.

Why is it that today's scientific calculators are often less capable than those of the past?
