How many of you like HP41C calculators?

Of course a lot of the problems with the word 'computer' are historic. When all this electronic/symbolic crap started (even radar fits in there), 'computer' meant one who computes; then wiseguys started making 'electronic computers', and 'automatic computers', and 'automatic, electronic computers', and 'analog computers', and my favorite penultimate, 'automatic, electronic, digital computers', which appeared in the title of many books pre-1960. Analog computers, even assuming the simpler operational-amplifiers-and-multipliers kind of closed-loop jobs, 'compute' in an entirely different way, for in 1952, solving a three-term equation on real time was pretty amazing, and the mechanized-thuoght, computational world was open and infinite. Clearly a bunch of opamps today don't make a computer by *most* people's standards today. I'm perfectly amused with these semantic games, but then I'm nuts, I hope it doesn't go to far in here :-) I'm not sure where that HP-41 went...
