Great your older brother from me. He was our tutor during his military service at st Cyr.
I myself had an hp48 during my high school and now I own 6 of them I bought on Leboncoin or eBay for cheap. Also found an hp32sII for 5 euros but after three years I own it it decided to die in my hand.
- stephc_int13 4y agoAre they working correctly? Most of the models seems to age well except for the rubber-like connector between the key plane and the motherboard, and the keys are either not registering presses or you have to press hard on the body.
- GekkePrutser 4y agoMine still works ok. Though I never got my head around RPN though.. I just don't use maths enough to get accustomed to it. If it would have supported normal notation as well it would still have been a useful tool to me.
- stephc_int13 4y agoWhat is the exact model? Would you sell it?
- netmonk 4y agoI’m looking for memory card either diy or genuine. Do you know if it exists anymore ? I often find custom Ron card with specific application (EE or advanced physics) but I cannot find 1mb black card for sell.
- GekkePrutser 4y agoI don't remember exactly, have to look it up. I think it was a 48GX. But the problem is sending electronic items to the US is a real PITA. I'm in Europe myself. We shipped a MacBook with work one day from the US to EU and it would have cost us more than the thing was worth in import and brokerage charges, it was ridiculous :( In the end we had to decline and the thing went back but it still incurred a lot of charges there.
- stephc_int13 4y agoI also live in Europe, I am French but I live in the UK at the moment.
- GekkePrutser 4y agoAh the UK is also a problem now unfortunately :( Thanks to Brexit. But sending to France might be doable if that could work (I'm Dutch, in Spain). I'll have a look for it and ping you.
- netmonk 4y agoBeside the hp32sII which refuse to switch on since this last august, my 6 hp48gx are running very well. I have a serial cable and was able to upload program on it ( the famous dune game) I also grabbed some French books (classic one for hp48)
- stephc_int13 4y agoThe best game was Phoenix, made a guy from Croatia, smooth gameplay, tight controls, sound effects, difficult and a bit short but enjoyable. Diamonds was also very good.

- stephc_int13 4y agoImpressive :) I had most of those books and a few others at some point. My almost 30 years old GX was unfortunately stolen last year. :(
- 0xabe 4y agoI was always amazed that a game like Phoenix was possible on it. Really enjoyed that game. Didn’t know about Diamonds. Something to look up. Thanks!
