This has officially become a relic....

I pulled this out of my desk. The batteries are dead. There are no batteries for it in the supply room. I had to aks myself the question. "Why bother?"

The truth of the matter is I haven't used it in months. No, more like a year. Maybe even two or three. I forgot the last time I used it. I can't:

-Take pictures with it
-Text message someone with it
-Whore it up on the POA or Facebook with it
-Get the weather with it
-Get a pixel display of my flight route with it (although, I could conceivably program it with some simple nav calcs if I wanted to spend the time)
-Face time with it
-Take pictures with it
-Yada yada yada.

I've got an RPN calculator program on my desktop that is easier to use, and an RPN calculator on my Iphone as well, if I need a portable calculator (I hate using standard calculators, I'm spoiled.) Plus a lot of the long calculations I would have done on it when I got it, I'd do in an Excel spreadsheet these days anyway.

Oh well.

I have a 15C that I use nearly daily, and I've owned it since 1985. Third set of batteries, I love the thing.
I still use an HP 11C I bought almost 3 decades ago.
