Fred,

HP makes the emulators for the new calculators available only to educators! It sure would be nice if HP sold these emulators to anyone.

Ahh yes, I recieved mine today also. I was quite amazed when I first installed it. It asked me if I wanted to install the source code for the emulators also. I was asking myself why HP would be giving away their source code. I said yes, and carried on. I opened the emulator, and it had an option to point to the EMU48 directory. As far as I can tell, this is EMU48 (which is why the source code was included)

Further investigations say yes. I clicked on the Help menu and clicked the "About EMU48" button. It is EMU48 exactly. It seems to be EMU 1.35+

Wow... the interface is quite nice (for someone who has never used EMU48). If people wish, I can upload some screen shots.

It is incredibley fast.

One question, as far as I can tell, there is no reason not to post this software online, right? My guess is that HP did not post it to give a reason for people to buy their calculator. It never asked me to upload a rom or anything. You tell me.

I will be happy to answer any questions. My cal teacher should be getting the 33s emulator soon.
