Calculator Museum
Welcome to my calculator museum! This page is dedicated to showcasing my collection of calculators, alongside their history (something generally underappreciated in the world.)

Featured Exhibits
Calculator of the Month - HP 28C
The HP 28C was HP's very first graphing calculator, and was the first widely-avaliable calculator to feature the capability to manipulate symbolic algebraic expressions (a capablility we call 'CAS', or the Computer Algebra System, today). This particular model has SN 2726A01877, and was manufactured in June '87.

(Shoutout to the HP Prime G2 for providing its backlight for this picture.)
This here is a Casio OH-7000g. Already, the 7000g is notable - the fx-7000g was the very first commercially widely-avaliable graphing calculator. The OH-7000g is essentially the same calculator, but with a transparent LCD screen designed to be placed on an overhead projector (Which I regrettably do not have)
This particular OH-7000g came with a case, alongside several manuals and a few papers signifying its (clearly storied) past.
One of those packets inside indicates that this kit was owned and used by a few schools in California, including Pleasanton Middle School and Del Campo High School.
Why Calculators?
Autism.
In all seriousness, I've always been fascinated by calculators. They're a dying breed of technology that once was the forefront in the cutting edge of electronics.
My hope is to preserve some of that lovely history.
