  3. Back in the late 90s, when TI already ruled calculators in High Schools, I selected HP48 as my platform. It is a high-end engineering calculator with CAS capabilities, native units, stack based interface and programmable in RPL.

    Recently I purchased a near mint HP48G and again have a physical calculator on my desk.

    Between rich library, various symbolic solvers and even ... more on:

  8. Gotta say, I do miss the free #HP48[GS]X? emulators on #iOS.

    Those were fun to play with.

  9. This #HP48 is always within reach on my desk and I use it very often.

    PS: RPN is the best!!!

  10. I hope the hive mind can help me here...

    I remember playing a #game, many years ago (so probably a #RetroGame by now) where you have to solve #puzzles of increasing complexity where you need to push "something" (in my mind, these were garbage bins??) onto targets. I think I played this on an #HP48 or #HP28 #calculator, or on an X-Windows system (possibly both).

    Does this ring any bells? #BoostsWelcome!

    Edit: it's Sokoban! It suddenly popped out of my subconscious mind!

  11. I don't know why I haven't searched for this before, as I'm a huge nerd, but here is x48ng, an HP48GX emulator project.

  12. @adh @IvyMike really what we need for the phone apps is a little bluetooth or usb-c adapter to fit in guts of an original HP48 as a keyboard controller so we can use its lovely keyboard to control the emulator on our modern device. #HP48 #Emulator #ProjectIdea

  17. @textfiles nice to see. I've been running a app on my phone for ages. good to have a fall back if i misplaced my phone 😅

  18. @ibannieto I discovered #RPN at university using #HP48
    it is a powerful tool 😜 @neauoire @rek

  19. @jwildeboer This #HP48 G from 1998, two years before going to study physics
