As most of you old timers here may recall, I put out an APB (all points bulletin - police lingo there) once upon a time for any information leading the the arrest and procurement of an HP 42S scientific calculator.
All the sources I could find had the calculator going for $200.00 USD. A price I flat refused to pay.
Well, our resolute and scholarly friend Avarice came through with a "Free42" executable program that *is* the 42S but alas is confined to a pc or notebook type device.
Well guess what I found in the iTunes store. A free Free42S app. Now I have the 42S in my pocket (on me iPod Touch) for FFRREEEEE!!!
Well unless you want to be a bugger and point out the iPod wasn't free which it was not. But calculating is not why I bought it so the price of the gadget is immaterial.
Go see!! Go see!!! The screenshot here is not as good as the app looks on the iPod.

And here I was expecting to be told off for calling an end to your centuries amongst us.
This is a nice surprise. Congrats.

Huh? calling an end?. . . . I remember you wishing me a happy 113th in October but I don't recall anyone calling an end to anything. _________________
