Does anyone still use the HP48GX calculator?

[mflacy]

I found my HPGX I used to use in high school in the back of a drawer. I was thinking of putting it up on Ebay if people still used them. All I ever used if for was to play a bunch of games. Does anyone still use these things or should I just junk it?

The 48's are still very popular amone university science and engineering students. About 75% of the people in my classes have 48's or 49's.

Why is everyone so pro HP49 and anti TI89?

I know a lot of people at my school don't like the HP49. I've never used a 49 so I don't really know. The TI-89 is pretty nice, I tried using somebody's one time and the interface is a lot different from their previous calculators. Basically, I use my TI-85 for most simple stuff, and I use my 48G whenever I want to do anything symbolic, or simultaneous equations, etc.
