33s initial impressions - Eric Lundgren - 02-17-2005 Just bought two HP33s'. It seems like a pretty nice calculator so far. Compared to the 49g+, I'm very glad that I can fire off strings of numbers w/o missing any. IRT the complaints about how 26 LBLs' won't stretch to 31k, but...I'll use it to organize equation sets, for example:
X-SECT PROP
and so on..
Re: 33s initial impressions - Karl Schneider - 02-18-2005 Yes, the 33S is a capable calculator, based on the 32SII of 1991, which in turn was based on the 32S of 1988. The 31kB of RAM allows the user to retain a library of equations and programs. Quite frankly, though, I would have been much more pleased with a RPN-only 32SII with 8 kB RAM and complete complex-number functionality.

Regards, Re: 33s initial impressions - Fubar Vikinghelmet - 02-18-2005 How do you plan to get around the limits of 26 labels? I've found that, like you, equation sets is the way to go - partly, though organizing them and parsing through the (so far) 80 equations I've kept is tedious.
32SII+8kB =/ 42S - Karl Schneider - 02-19-2005 Quote: Yes, those are two attributes of the 42S, but what I suggested was still quite different:
