Thank you for your kind remarks but I am only trying to pay tribute to these machines which have cost me long nights of insomnia, and to keep the trace and the memory of those who also slept little in the 70s...

What, you knew about all those nights I stayed up so late writing TI-58c/59 programs in 1981-86, enjoying myself thoroughly?!

I did the same in 77-78. I got a book of BASIC programs and spent many happy nights and packs of cigarettes converting them to AOS. Once I learned AOS from all those conversions, I set out to write my own programs. Good times!

As I was putting my HP 19BII away, (I purchased it today at Re-Store for $2.99 + tax)
I noticed I have a TI-59 in its belt case, and a booklet of mag cards.
I don't know if I've ever used it, I'm sure I bought it at a 2nd hand store or yard sale.
