There are 2 very different looking 17BII+ machines, though they have the same features (and could even function identically, I'm not 100% sure). The 17BII+ "Gold", released in '03 was made by Kinpo and is obviously gold in color, has a very cheap plastic roundish case, poor keyboard, with a so-so LCD. The 17BII+ "Silver", released in '06, has a silver metal face, by far the best LCD of any Pioneer machine, is quite attractive with an excellent keyboard. They both unfortunately have a bug in HP-Solve which leads to incorrect results when doing most complex equations/programs (introduced when the 17BII was ported by Kinpo). For this reason, most folks prefer the 17BII (no plus). However if you won't be needing HP-Solve (let's face it, most financial machine users don't) the 17BII+ is an excellent all-around financial machine, better than the 12C in almost every way. Still, the 12C remains quite popular with almost everyone in the mortgage/loan/lending industries, mostly because of it's mythic history/reputation, plus the landscape format makes it seem less techie while simultaneously more sophisticated. A bit like Corinthian Leather - it may not in fact be better, but it is more desirable. --Bob Prosperi |
