  I had a solar-powered pocket calculator with a membrane once. Credit-card-sized. You can tell I was a nerd because I owned three pocket calculators at the same time.

  Didn’t they both have the shitty shift/atari button thing?

    Yes, but the 400 had it on a spillproof membrane like you’d see on a fast-food cash register. The later models improved the layout but most had much worse switches than the 800.

  LOL, my friend had the 400. We all hated it.
