Mysterious cross words on HP-48GX - J.M. Lecointre - 09-15-2006 Test this combination of keys on your HP-48 (mine is a GX one) and discover a secret grid of cross words hidden inside (various fornames) : ON [right shift] ENTRY [right shift] ENTRY (this turns the calculator into ALG PRG mode) [alpha] [alpha] RULES [ALPHA] [ENTER] and then appears on the screen these mysterious crosswords... Funny !
(by the way, I was learning how to rearrange some symbolic expressions when I discovered this)
Re: Mysterious cross words on HP-48GX - Antonio Maschio (Italy) - 09-15-2006 This is an easter egg, found also on the HP-49g+. It shows people names involved in the HP-48GX making. -- Antonio

of course AMIGOS aren't related to the HP-48GX,

Re: Mysterious cross words on HP-48GX - Antonio Maschio (Italy) - 09-16-2006 Maybe, I haven't got neither the 48GX nor the 49G. I read news about these easter eggs in Educalc here, right for the 49G. Sorry.

HP-49g+ easter eggs survey - Antonio Maschio (Italy) - 09-16-2006 Now that we cleared the way, just for fun, do you know HP-49g+ easter eggs (I know: RULES, "HpMad" typed into any enter form that starts a fast Tetris, "MINEISBETTER" typed into EQW that pops up a slow Tetris)? -- Antonio
Yes, I know, this is a serious Forum. But even engineers who design calculators (and have fun in hiding easter eggs) are serious! Aren't they?

Re: HP-49g+ easter eggs survey - Antonio Maschio (Italy) - 09-18-2006 Actually, RULES is reported on the AUR for the HP-49g+, so it shouldn't be considered as an easter egg. I discovered it yesterday. I don't know what about the HP-48 family. -- Antonio
