My first worthwhile Calculator was some knockoff of a TI 30 by LLoyds......quickly followed by a real TI 30 Just couldn't spend the time trying to figure out scenery on sloped decks using my CRC tables anymore. Sprung for the $25/30 (now about $125) as soon as I saw something that would do trig functions that was "affordable" Min wage was then around $2.25.....I left academia and was working in regional theatre so how likely was it that I was making minimum wage? (1976)
It might be in a box with old tools in my garage. Still have several solar models of TI 30s at work... I got very use to the key stroke order and placement.
