RE: DM32 from Swiss Micros
Back in the 1990s, in Texas they had an interscholastic calculator competition at the high school level. It was all about how fast you can use a calculator.
The best-performing students often used the HP 32SII because it has so many functions that are so easily accessible, though its use of RPN and a high-quality keyboard were probably even more significant. It has very limited use of menus so nearly everything is right there on the keyboard, just one or two keystrokes away. What few menus it has only add one more keystroke. That was by itself a big advantage over the 42S and graphing calculators of the time, which buried functionality multiple menus deep or required typing in command names, while still managing more functionality compared to competing scientific calculators from other brands, and now as has been shown it's a big advantage over the current menu-driven scientific models as well. |
