Damned straight! Uncle Al's HP15C has been used mercilessly. It's
the best calculator ever made - incredibly functional, beautifully
small and perfectly proportioned, almost indestructible... and one
pair of batteries lasts 10 years.
BRING BACK THE HP15C! No useful human can go through life without the
security of having a spare.
