I got a 48S on ebay for $35 or so and in my opinion the 48 series is
great. I use it for all my engineering courses (fastest calculations
in the class, everyone else has to fight those stupid TI-89 things).
Although they look kinda nice, there's no reason to have a 48-anything
unless you're going to use it, so just look for used, known-to-work
calculators.

No doubt the
41 is a vintage piece though. You could
even probably add later models like the 10s, 48's. I
bought a 10s in 1990, and I doubt it was brand
spanking new then. I wouldn't mind having a 48GX
though. I have dreams of finding one still in the
original package. I think something like that could
fetch upwards of 600$ on ePay.
I don;t see the point of the original box. You;'d lower the vlaue as soon
as you ripped off the shrinkwrap and started to use it, and what the
heck's the point of a calculator you don't use?
If you want a 48GX to use, they're not that rare...
