Has any HP calc model ever been sold under another brand? - hecube - 08-19-2009

Look at this:

No, it is a clone with no connection to HP... - Gene Wright - 08-19-2009

There have been this and one other 12c clone I've seen before. Bought the other 12c clone (was a vertical model) from Frys several years ago.

Have this Victor too.

Don't really care for either.

But, I don't believe there is any connection to HP at all.

Is there a victor HP-15c version too?

As George Bernard Shaw once said: "I often quote myself; it ads spice to the conversation".

This is a link to a photo of the 12c clone that Gene was talking about. There is also a shot of the pcb there.

Gene; You are right; there is no connection.

Dennis - you miss it??? - Joerg Woerner - 08-20-2009

Dennis,

I guess this auction was put up on eBay for you! I just browsed your non-HP RPN calculator photos and missed it.

What happened?

Regards,
Joerg


Re: Dennis - you miss it??? - db (martinez, ca.) - 08-20-2009

Here is is. It was hiding among all those other cute RPNs. There is an internal of the PCB and a comparison to the hp12c photo on either side of it.

Why are you selling yours Joerg? You will need a financial calculator to keep track of all your money when you sell off those pesky TI algebraics. Have you fallen in love with the new RPN 20b?


Re: Dennis - you miss it??? - Joerg Woerner - 08-21-2009

THANKS for sharing the pctures of the V12.

Why I'm selling it?

To make room for more TI calculators;-))

Just hit the 3,000 number and there is more out in the woods.

Regards,
Joerg
