You need to let me visit and screw around. I bet I can use all your patch cords at once in a modular patch.

I love this photo. It just needs Robby the robot to be complete.

Something doesn’t add up in that picture.
I’m guessing it’s the TD-3.

My herd is not so much a collection as insurance against the darn things breaking. Note that two of my instances are Free42. That’s installed on all my Linux boxes, and the other is on a first gen Moto G that showed up in a junk pile much after I bought the old Pioneer series calculators. I’ve used RPN so long that every time I try to use a non-RPN calculator, I want to fling it against the wall, and while I do have a TI84 and TI85 a got at a garage sale before I found the HPs at a price I’d pay, they are clunky and annoying to use. One HP42s I’ve had for a while from a former boss, but given their price on the used market, I was afraid of losing it or having it stolen, so it never left the house. Were I to do it all again, I’d probably just run Free42 on a phone. The serious stuff gets done on my Linux boxes where I have Maxima, SciLab, and a boat load of programming languages. The calculators are still handy for that not-quite-back-of-the-envelope stuff.
I’ld like to eat at the restaurant where that comes out when they ask if you want black pepper…
