RE: Your First Handheld?
My first calculator was the TI-108 in elementary school, then the Math Explorer in junior high. When everyone else got their TI-83/84+'s, I got a TI-89 Titanium and used that throughout high school and freshman year of college.
Got my first HP calculator in 2012 - the HP35s, since I was planning on taking the FE exam during my senior year, and this is the best calculator allowed (and the only programmable). Thus, I've been using this as my daily driver, relegating the overkill TI-89 to my desk drawer to be used when checking MATLAB results or solving systems of equations. My dad is a huge fan of HP calculators, though, and I heard about them through him first (12C diehard). I also got a 15C LE in 2012. First LED calculator was the HP 32E, in not-so-great condition...a friend repaired it for me somewhat but it's still not too reliable. Recently I got a 32S off TAS for about $50, but I still am more used to the 35s and so I'm sticking to that for now, until I finally take the FE. |
