Abstract

You can also press the number keys on your keyboard to make them appear in the calculator's screen, and Enter and arrow keys to move down and across lines, though you can't delete numbers using your keyboard. Start by visiting the main page (www. snipca.com/44942) then browse the calculators on display, which were all made by Hewlett-Packard (now known simply as HP) or Texas Instruments in the Eighties and Nineties. The calculators have been reborn as emulators, which is software that lets one operating system behave like another, and has been used to bring many old computers back to life, including assorted Amigas, Commodores and Spectrums.
