I see the last sentence claims the platinum has "extra financial functions". I don't know what these are. Quote: There is also a big image of the newest HP 12c platinum at HP Newsroom Great pic! Quote: Yes, itīs the 25th anniversary of the HP 12c BTW itīs also the 90th anniversary of "Consul" The Educated Monkey (not a HP calculator :-) but I heard it is still in production) Now, that is cool. I'd never seen Consul before. Cheers, Tony

Not really a function, but ... Then again, they may not know the difference between extra functions and extra "financial" functions. Gene at Macworld
