  Here's a question for the list - how many
still have and use the TI
 calculator that could be used in octal or hex? 
It's sitting on a shelf by my PDP-11 :^)  I used to have one (Casio I think)
that was solar powered and had an LCD rather than the LED display of the TI. 
I think I still have the non-solar powered one that replaced it, but it
needs a new battery.

Ti Programmer, still have it.
Sharp EL508 and EL512 the latter I got as part of my"toolkit" 
at DEC in '83.  The Pair are both battery powered, the difference
is the 506 is a scientific calc and the 512 adds programability
to the same capability.
