Just saw Astronaut Farmer this past weekend. During part where B.B. Thornton discusses fueling of his rocket with his son and camera pans toward his desk, an HP calculator makes a movie appearance. I couldn't tell if it was an HP-11C, HP-15C, or perhaps an HP-12C. Only the bottom left hand corner of the calculator was visible and you could clearly see the "ON" button and the gold and blue shift keys, and the distinctive shape of that series of calculators.
