Button problems plague this model

From the 1st day and 2yrs since this thing has always failed to register numbers entered (regardless of pressure). When I looked online, similar complaints/reviews abound - check it out. having to look at the number to make sure the calculator got it makes this a disaster! Buy an old 17bII - used. Don't be fooled by reviews of people who just took it out of the box. Go to reviews off the HP site - metareview
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fantastic Business/Financial Calculator

Great calculator - even for those out there that don't like HPs! In my line of work I need a calculator that can perform a variety of business and financial calculations. I have used the HP 12 series in the past, but this calculator is a great improvement. First of all, you don't have to use RPN; you can enter numbers and calculations just as you would on standard "non HP" calculators. Secondly, the on screen prompts make it easy to recall how to perform calculations that you might not use on a regular basis. My favorite and most often used calculations involve loan payments. This calculator makes it very easy to calculate these and to calculate how one variable change effects others without having to re-enter the data. I recommend this calculator to anybody that needs to perform business/financial calculations on a regular basis - even those that swear that they hate HPs. This calculator is great and very user friendly!

This is a good calculator, I just hope it can handle operations like a scientific calculator. Also, the packaging is full of dust, it looks like it has been sitting on the shelf for fifty years.

I figured this was an upgrade to my HP12C and was so disgusted by it that I sent it back. If a product isn't broken, do not make a new product if you can't make it better than the old one. You can't force progress, just wait until the next Einstein is born and hire him to come up with your next product. Our world is short of smart people like me!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

HP 17BII
on July 17, 2008

I've had my 17BII since 1990 and its still going strong. The features are fantastic but in the long run, all the functions here are available on a spreadsheet and there may be no need for this calculator any more. I did buy a 10BII for the home office, the build quality doesn't seem to be there. It misses a key every once in a while.
HP should write an application for the PC/MAC
