A Woodstock 67

[Matt Agajanian]

Hi all.

Since the HP-67 is built on Woodstock technology, shouldn't it be labeled part of the Woostock family instead of Classic lineage?

Just wondering.

[John W Kercheval]

No Woodstock was in the 1960s and in New York. Not applicable here.

[Jeroen Van Nieuwenhove]

Your observation is entirely correct, but tradition plants it firmly in the Classics series. I guess the packaging is deemed more decisive than the innards in this respect.

[Matt Agajanian]

And it does bear a family resemblance to the 65 so, yeah, I'll honour tradition and promote it to the Classic lineage.

The same question could be raised much more so for the HP-19C. It's a Sting model even though its core is the same as the HP-29C Woodstock.

It's what the machine looks like...an HP-67 looks a lot more Classic than it does Woodstock.
