Folks,
Any idea who manufactured this cutie?
It is made in the US, features a Western Digital calculator chip and is somehow similiar to some Texas Instruments OEM products (think Montgomery Ward P8M).
Any ideas / hints welcome.
Regards,
Joerg

From the design of it, the slanted display and the label placement, my instinct tells me maybe it's a dupe of a Litronix made for Edited: 29 Apr 2012, 9:43 p.m.

But mine use NS chips (CPU&driver), maybe there are different versions, or the CPUs are interchangeable

Litronix manufactured usually in Malaysia, the keyboard is completely different and the display isn't from Litronix. The CPU is a 40-pin DIP and Rockwell manufactured usually in Mexico. Rockwell keyboard designs are differnt from this one... Very strange calculator.
Thanks and Regards,

I noted "Manufactured by Rockwell" in my list, probably not without a reason :)

I had one of those, and I am not sure of the manufacturer - but I seem to recall Bowman having similar models and I thought it was perhaps theirs. Not at all certain though. Don

So I just disassembled one, and on second sight, I don't think it is manufactured by Rockwell (odd that I added this as a hint).

Fort Worth being the corporate headquarters for (at the time) Tandy corporation/Radio Shack. This is now just Radio Shack. |
