but even so the calculator is small and
I won't have any problems finding room for it.
Your in-laws let you keep these things? Lucky bastard.
My in-laws won't let me have their Apple IIc+ setup... despite the fact
that they literally use it as a door stop (they have the monitor in use
proping a door open... makes me cringe every time I am over there).
I've offered many times to trade it for a nice brandy spanking new,
safety orange, soft rubber door stop... but nope... they just won't let
me have it. Someday I'll convince my wife to put her foot down and take
it... technically it is her computer.

The sooner the better. You don't want to hear "well, we
finally just threw it out and got a brick".

Wrong machine for the job. Everybody knows that a Timex-Sinclair is the
best doorstop.

BTW you can still upgrade the old one.
