I once had to do a show-n-tell in my 7th grade English class (they didn't think we'd outgrown that?), where we were supposed to bring and talk about our most prized possession.
Knowing I'd be laughed at for mine--and probably have something bad happen to it--I just pretended that my new calculator (cheap, simple, but kinda nice-looking and ergonomic) fit the bill.
And, of course, shortly afterward it was stolen.

The same incident happened to my very first calculator back at elementary school.It has been only a few hours after I began showing off that fancy-looking yet pretty lame in function little thing before it schemed a 'get-away' with someone in my class. :)

How about CASIO FX 570ES PLUS that really good.Any way do you know Proteus and Altium

You don't say,I wasn't really good at this though.What they taught in embedded system and SCM was some really aged stuff like 8086 and ARM cortex M3. And we never get to learn PCB design properly so I pretty much only get to use Altium a little.Plus my interest is in IC front design so generally I only write verilog codes and do some simulations now.

Well me neither but ARM and 8086 is classical of modern IC,well somehow i really get bad mood at Assembly coding it make me fail a subject

My preferred calculator was the Casio FX-85MS
The coolest watch I had ever seen, which doubles as a TV remote, was the Casio Remote Control Calculator watch

Most guys in my high school have the MS model as it is a standard issue calculator(mine being an exception coz of my old man's legacy :D).I'd say its control is a bit weird and we once run a test and proves that the TL model actually do complex arithmetic faster than the MS model.

I still use one in uni. Mine's been with me for 4 years.

Today I ordered a new fx-82es model and I was REALLY SAD.
I could still recall the day when my dad reluctantly gave me his fx-82TL model ,claiming that a 7th grade student wouldn't need such a advanced calculator.Now I am a junior guy in college,and I can't find the 82TL anywhere,not even in CASIO website's past model section.Guess is way too outdated now.
The thing is that I've spent like ten years with this simple(compare to later models ) yet reliable calculator and until this Monday it was A-OK.
The battery was dead and I just planned to unscrew the back panel and change one like I have done a few times before.
When I was removing the battery from the case, the spring at the anode was too tide and it got detached with the wire.'No biggies,' I said to myself.
I am a EE student and welding a broken wire seems nothing too challenging.I headed to the Lab in the afternoon and did a quick fix.Yet when I put it all back together, I found that a few button won't response now.
Figured it should be the pressing detector got slack and I wouldn't risk removing the circuit board as I wasn't that handy with gadgets.
I felt like I've lost an old friend, one hell of a partner to be exact, the kind that was old-fashioned but really reliable and have save your ass a million times(as it really did in the numerous exams I've taken).
Guess I'll have to move on,I 've felt quite the same when my nokia got stolen and the old models were already gone for good.However I'm still feeling quite bad.
Anyway guys thanks for hearing me mumbling.
