In addition to the rare "LN 2 bug" species of the HP-35 there is
also a rare variation of the now extinct HP-45 (may she rest in
peace).  Apparently some of the very first HP-45's had only RCL
arithmetic but not STO arithmetic.  The owner of such a beast thus
holds in the palm of his hands the long lost ancient ancestor of all
subsequent HP handhelds which used storage arithmetic, the so-called
"missing link" if you will.  If you have an HP-45 with S serial
number greater than 1301S 2000 or an A serial number greater than
1336A 00000, consider yourself to be the lucky owner of one of the
very first HP handhelds to have both STO and RCL arithmetic!
