Hewlett Packard Voyager Series
From Wiki
Hewlett-Packard Voyager Series
| Picture | Calculator | Years | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| HP-10C | 1982-1984 | Budget scientific calculator, issued following the thought that the 11C and 15C prices were out of reach of a significant market segment. HP was wrong about that, and discontinued the model early on. | |
| HP-11C | 1981-1989 | Baseline general-purpose scientific calculator. | |
| HP-12C | 1981-present | According to HP, this was the first horizontal-format calculator. Immensely popular, despite more powerful alternatives, and the only original Voyager model still in production. Goldman-Sachs once (and may still) issued these to new analysts. | |
| HP-12C Platinum | 2003-2006 | Not one of the original Voyager series, it is said that this calculator was re-engineered from a scanned HP-12C manual provided by The HP Museum. Has four times the memory. Made by Kinpo in China. Also includes algebraic entry to attract the timid. | |
| HP-12C Platinum 25th Anniversary Edition | 2006-present | An update of the Platinum commemorating the world's longest-lived calculator model. Adds parentheses, backspace and an undo feature. The processor is no longer held back. | |
| HP-15C | 1982-1989 | Super-duper ultra scientific calculator. Supports matrix operations, complex numbers (with a parallel stack for the imaginary component), SOLVE (HP's root finding algorithm) and numeric integration | |
| HP-16C | 1982-1989 | Binary math calculator with features to simulate the processor you were working with. Discontinued despite a vocal cult following. Alas, cults don't cough up the cash... |
