Impossible to conclude anything as simple and clear as this represents the real world, as folks were answering different questions along the way. Some folks were replying with what they owned, others what they use, and in most cases didn't report emulators at all as that was excluded in the OP. One can't reach any real conclusions about what people own and use, based solely on the above replies, due to the evolving nature of the thread.

Which is not to say that this thread has not been interesting (despite my initial doubts...), in fact it has been quite interesting for me.

These things surprised me:

1. So many members own/use so many units of a given model
2. So many members own/use RPL machines, despite the relative few that post about it
3. So few members are Prime users (though I think most Prime users don't spend time in this area of the forum, so it's a false indication)
4. So many members have/use business models

These things didn't surprise me:

1. So many members prefer the 41 over any other machine
2. There are many, many fanatics here. Calcaholism is never pretty.
3. That I was surprised my many of the replies. I always learn interesting stuff in these seemingly boring topics, which I guess is what I really need to learn.
