How much does the Sharp Wizard cost? How much does the Casio BOSS cost? In case you don't know. Educalc Atari Portfolio: $349.95 Sharp Wizard OZ 8000: $299.95 Casio BOSS SF-9500: $272.00 and to compare Elek-tek HP48sx: $249.95 Considering that the hp48sx will do many of the same NON-techie things that the other three will do, I think the hp48sx is a pretty good deal. Granted, I chose the top end for the other products but I think it is a fair comparison. Nobody is going to accuse the Sharp Wizard of being "techie-only". ;) ;) ian -- -=Runaway Daemon=-
