10BII Message #1 Posted by Thibaut.be on 22 Sept 2003, 3:42 p.m. I just acquired a 10BII from a sell-off of a shop. Actually I like this calculator. It would just be great if it were also RPN. I like the display, the voyager-like keys, the smooth edges, anf the sliver bezel. The keys are easy to read. I've read a lot of flaming about recent HP's, and even if I definitely regret the 42S and the voyager series, I have to say that the recent ones are not that bad. The 33S seems to be great, the 49G is a hell of a machine though the keyboard is just crap (let's wait for the 49G+ or whatever it is). Let's be positive and encourage HP going further in the right direction, who knows, maybe there is a HP guy of the calculators department who will realize our dreams...

Re: 10BII Message #2 Posted by GE (France) on 22 Sept 2003, 4:10 p.m., in response to message #1 by Thibaut.be You're right, this machine looks very nice. Now, just type on it...

Re: 10BII Message #3 Posted by Paul Brogger on 22 Sept 2003, 5:53 p.m., in response to message #2 by GE (France) I have one, bought "as is" at Office Despot (Ahhh say, that there's a joke, son!) Its keyboard is firm and responsive. It doesn't convey the feeling of "mass" that older HP keys offer, but it's waaaaaaay better than those of the 6s & 30s examples I've tried. If the newer H-P's offer keyboards as good as this (and if they last a while), I'd say it'll be a step in the right direction.
