  I still got both TI-92 and HP 48 GX, and I gonna stay like this, at least until I got

the plus module and I'm sure it works properly ( especially regarding resets ! ).
Indeed I only use my HP for units conversions, browsing its database and things
I already got on it; I also use it to program some algorithms with which RPL deals
quite well ( even if this language is sometimes heavy and boring).
Regarding data storage, on this day, my opinion is that the HP is still the surest :
expansion cards may be locked and are reliable ( even if the machine itself is easy to
jam ) , while the TI offers absolutely no protection ( may be the Extender-uP could
be a solution, but I didn't test it, so I can't promise anything).

That's all, bye.
