Re: 15C LE: Will 10K units get sold quickly? Message #20 Posted by Martin Pinckney on 15 Sept 2011, 3:40 p.m., in response to message #19 by LMMT
I think all this talk about "enthusiasts, collectors, aficionados" misses a large point. There are many thousands of engineers, scientists, even draftsmen, for crying out loud, of a certain age range, who used Voyagers (not to mention other types) in their careers. They probably don't know anything about this forum, or the ups and downs of HP's calculator division in recent years, but they will want a 15c LE, if they find out about it.
Think Baby Boomers (US). They're buying all sorts of stuff these days for nostalgic or similar reasons.
Besides, the 15c is a well-implemented, compact, good-looking, useful calculator.
