I keep looking to see if they have the credit card ones back in stock, but they never seem to.

A few weeks ago I added an "rpncalc" command to my CLI "swiss army toothpick" program ( https://github.com/linsomniac/toothpyk ): "pyk rc 86500,24/365x" (x == * == multiply).

On the one hand I love the HP calculators and have leaned on them heavily in the distant past. On the other hand I like having a clean desktop (3d printing some under desk drawers at this moment).

When I was in college, my physics professor brought back a credit card sized calculator, with scientific functions, from a trip to Japan. I was super envious. My Sharp was small enough to be portable, but nothing like how small it could be.
