This is kind of amusing... Message #1 Posted by Michael on 3 Oct 2002, 2:43 p.m. http://www.efmoody.com/hp12c.html There is link to the museum. Sorry if this has been posted before. Remember to always ask to inspect any prospective CFP's calculator.

And while it is especially nice that they mention the 12C as such, the idea behind it is even better. It's similar to my stats prof who says you can use any calculator program on a test as long as you write the program. otherwise you "don't know dirt about what the program tells to you". I'd be a bit scared of a financial planner who couldn't do basic compound interest on a calculator. or a napkin.

Watch out...I used to work for Arthur Andersen :-) Message #4 Posted by Gene on 4 Oct 2002, 7:32 a.m., in response to message #3 by db(martinez,california) Left in 1994. Guess my reputation is ok. :-) And, I use a 12c more often than any other HP. Gene
