Hello -

My HP 85 is growing long in the tooth. I want to replace it with
something more modern BUT just as reliable/dependable (e.g. doesn't
crash). I'm afraid when it does break I won't be able to find parts to
repair it. It's being used in a working research lab. I use it to
control a rack of electronic gear (e.g. frequency synthesizer, dynamic
signal analyzer, network analyzer, etc.) so I don't need anything fancy
just bullet proof and reliable. This means windows and macs are out.

What's your opinion.

john
