HP 20S: Algebraic, but surprisingly capable. 99 program steps, 16 labels, subroutines, and 10 storage registers. Usually pretty cheap for a programmable Pioneer. The 21S is extremely similar, but slightly more exotic, and tends to be priced accordingly.

What else has a really high coolness-to-dollars (or preferred local currency) ratio these days?

Thanks Dave for the plug on this one. I've got one from my cousin as a hand-me-down. Its function set and programming features as well as AOS entry structure fit neatly into what I remember of my SR-56 programming. Plus, the addition of labels gives me the branching versatility of the SR-52. Nice blend.
