Here's Merlin's proletariat cousin - owl calculator. I love the angelic proclamation of Kmart at the beginning. We don't have Kmart in Canada anymore. Sniff.
You are from my era. When we did not upgrade our toys after a year or less. And we still get a thrill from coming across one today. It brings back memories. AND took some skill!
