Merry Xmas to me! Message #1 Posted by Les Wright on 24 Dec 2006, 7:06 p.m. I think I have finally joined the ranks of the true collector with this acquisition: HP65 for Xmas If the card reader works it is likely to croak any time now so that will need a fix unless it has been rebuilt. I did not skimp on my bidding since cosmetically it looks pretty good (the persistence of the silver trim after all these years is a good sign) and it is in its original famous case with all sorts of goodies, some even unopened. I think for a collector's item the final price isn't horrible--I have seen much higher at times--but I am sure that won't stop some of you from boasting about your great "steals"--e.g., working 9810 for 8 bucks at a garage sale, etc.... Merry Xmas to me. And to the rest of you, of course!!! Les
