And what's your name little fella? Message #1 Posted by Matt Agajanian on 31 Mar 2012, 3:51 p.m.
Hello all.
Perhaps it's here at MoHPC. But, is there a list of the family names (Pioneer, Spice, etc.) and codenames (e.g. Bonnie & Clyde for thee 19C/29C) for each calculator HP has made?
Thanks

You might enjoy this poster, it has a few more names (disclaimer: I am not the owner, not sure how accurate).

Two additional items I didn't find anywhere else were the mention of the "Eagle" and "Eagle Beagle" projects, described by Dennis York (formerly of HP Corvallis) in his 13-page biographical article in the British Handheld and Portable Computer Club's (HPCC) Datafile issue V27N6 from 2008:
Both were to hold built-in cassette drives. One eventually morphed into the HP75C (without the cassette) and the other one was stopped.
It was very interesting reading.
