HP48 GX in "Spiderman"
Message #1 Posted by Paulo MO on 23 Aug 2012, 8:23 p.m.

Hi, all

I went to the movies, to see this last Spiderman with the kids. In the movie, there is a long scene, where Spiderman is going through his father's stuff (his father was a scientist - genetics), and we can plainly see his father's nice and shiny calculator: a 48GX.

The movie was ok, but, more importantly, my kids now look at me and my old 48GX with a renewed degree of respect (the silogism here must, of course, be: "Spidey's father had a calculator; my father possesses an exactly identical calculator; therefore, me and SpiderMan are kind of alike...") :-)

Thank you, HP marketing (if it was you, which I doubt)

Paulo
