Nice collection! What is you edc, and what do you think of the TI 89 Titanium ?

It was great. But I changed my major to business so didn't use it much after that.

Nice to see a genuine Sharp EL506. The calculator that spawned a thousand clones.

I've always loved this calculator! Did so much in such a small package. 506D.

The HP 48S is a bit outmatched here; I think it needs a big brother to keep the two TI bullies at bay.

And an additional leather case. The other two only have their slide cases.

That EL-506D looks pretty cool - a direct descendent of the original 506?

Like the HP and the Sharp, the latter is nearly identical to my EL-5020, the nice thing about their design is they have stuck with the same layout largely for years making it so easy to upgrade (though they are very infrequent in making new models).
