They still wouldn't be the same.
I once had the wild idea to obtain a defective calculator and replace
the PCBs with a new one, for instance with an ATMEGA on it that provides
a complete emulation of the original machine. This would probably not

look&feel.
Besides that even defective HPs meanwhile sell like hell, I am just
lacking enough time for such a project :-(
