Psersonaly i Dissagree. I feel that this movie is one of the more Hypocrotical movies in existance.
>There is a scene involving the release of source code that make me clap, and possibly hoot/holler, without realizing I was doing so.
You must remember that while they aplude the free distrobution of ideas in the film the company behind it all (MGM)is one of the groups sueing 2600 over DeCSS. Now if thats not hypocricy i dont know what is.
True, but My Hp is SAT and AP legal and the date on the ROM on my HP 48GX is 1994, The 89s came out in 1998, or at least thats when they sent test models to schools.
>To top it off, HP calculators tend to be so much more durable than the offerings of TI, Casio, and Sharp and the keyboards can't be beat for feel and durability.
True, I have friends who have bought 3 Ti 83 in 5 years. I have bout 2 HPs in 7 years but that was only because I wanted a GX. The only thing that hurt my hps was when a "friend" spill shampoo onto the screan when i was away for a few days, I needed to get the LCD replaced, and that was it. Quite Durable.

Does anyone know of an avable RPN "$10" calculator? Some math competions require that aq calculator not be able to do symbolic manipulation, and all HP products that i have found are of this variety.

Standard calacuators work on a bizrar versiion of prefix, for log, Sqrt, ext, postfix, for Sqrd or Cubed, and infix, for * + / - and ^. Similar to c++. the HP simplifies all this because everything is postfix similar to Forth.

>Of course now I've dated myself
Not really half of the schools i'm appling to for next year have there intro or second year computer science course in scheme which,like lisp is prefix. In all honesty the only problem i have is that in a period of 2 weeks i was working scheme c++ and forth, and so my thought process kept ketting entangled.

No, try again,
RPN or Reverse Polish Notation is call so because it is the reverse of Polish Notation, or Prefix (Scheme and Lisp). Prefix is called Polish Notation because of some famious Mathmatician from poland started using, I dont remember his name.

Have you derived the borr model for an Atom? 3 pages of Intergrals, now about Quontum Tunaling or other applications of Hisonberg? (yes I cant spell)

Saw some plan somewere once to augment the stack using a SDRAM chip somewere, though you would have to be good with a sodering iron. Muerl
