They made an LCD version as well, I have one somewhere

to find it anytime soon). From memory it's a variant of the TI-55mk2.
If you want something cheaper still from memory the casio fx-100d has hex,
octal, binary and some logic functions. There shouldn't be any trouble
finding one. At least around here they were the standard "high school"
calculator before the graphic calcs came along.
At the moment, I'm looking at the TI-89 Titanium. Hex and binary conversion
onboard, programmable in TI-BASIC, 68k assembler or C. 3.5MiB User FLASH,
180KiB User RAM, 160x100 greyscale LCD. Beats faffing around with Windoze
Calculator, anyway.
Later.
