I doubt it.  The HP95 is a completely different animal.  It does not
have any of the engineering capabilities of the HP48 built into it.  It
has a financial calculator built into it that looks like the HP-19BII
capabilities with a new user interface.  If you are using your HP48
for a pseudo-spreadsheet and for financial calculations, then the HP95
is probably a better investment.  If you want to do engineering calculations,
the HP48 is probably the better investment.
