How many of you have some public way of showing the interest in calculators? I mean things like t-shirts or jackets, a hat, or maybe a tattoo? It would be nice to see some images.

My iPhone 6 case bears the detailed scan image of my college Sharp EL-512. This is what I've been carrying since May, 2015. It often gets a laugh from the gate agents when I use the phone for an electronic boarding pass. Many people ask if the calculator on the back of my phone case works (I wish).

Do analog calculators count? Here's my operational tie-clasp slide rule:



Unfortunately no trig or log scales though. Only multiply, divide, square root, and cube root.

I don't have a picture but many long time RPN fans have the famous "Hewlett-Packard ENTER > =" tee shirt...

And several here are know to at least occasionally wear a Hewlett-Packard Model One Digital Wrist Instrument (i.e. the HP-01). Does that count?

That is great - especially that it's functional! Now I've got to find one.

Absolutely.

Would anyone still hang their calculator from their belt, though. I'll admit that I did in high school and college.

There are photos in my High School yearbook ('77) of me wearing my HP-25 in its case on my left side (I'm left handed) and my HP-65 in its hard case on the right. I also frequently wore my "HP Homo-Programmus" T-shirt.

This image is not viewable, only an image placeholder saying linking is not allowed, and you need to upgrade your account. LOL. That would make a good T-Shirt too!

Really? I have no problems with it.
Anyway, here it is...

Strange. The original is still bad, but this copy is fine.
I don't recall seeing this before, thanks!
