I agree, the 92 Plus was a much needed update but the mechanics of the 92
itself could use some refining. Something equivilent to the new Game Boy
Color. <g>

HP's are good especially the updated 48G+ but IMO you don't really need to
learn reverse polish notation, unless you want to. The benefits of the HP,
excluding chemistry, aren't really seen until you reach upper level
engineering classes. I'm more interested in uploading engineering software
to my calculator than using reverse polish notation on a_slow_ calculator.
The 92's processor is still better than the 4mghz saturn processor the HP
uses though.
