The 11C started with 63 program steps and 20 numbered registers, and you could convert registers one at a time until you had 203 program steps and no numbered registers. The HP-11C was the first HP calculator I ever owned; after that I upgraded to an HP-41CV with the X-functions and Time modules (almost a CX), and now I have an HP-48SX. I would be fascinated to see some information on the original HP desktop calculator series that the HP 9100A belonged to. I have heard of later machines similar to the 9100A that had LED displays instead of CRT displays. I have a much-loved 9100A that I saved from being junked and which I suspect may outlast my other HP calculators and my HP 150. It's almost as old as I am and it's happily churning away on a table here at home. -- Steve VanDevender stevev@greylady.uoregon.edu "Bipedalism--an unrecognized disease affecting over 99% of the population.
