Hewlett Packard Champion Series
From Wiki
Hewlett-Packard Champion Series Also called the "Clamshell" series after the hinged hard case that the calculator was built into. All were based on the Saturn processor with the RPL operating system (although only the scientific calculators were programmable). The hinged case was surprisingly robust except for the battery compartment cover which turned out to be a little fragile.
