Great Desktop Calculator

OK, so it's not the smallest portable calculator to try and jam in your pocket. It's not one you want to take to your Calculus class or figure out P & L statements for your million dollar business. What it is, is the best desktop calculator for doing basic, every day type of calculations like balancing your checkbook. The numbers on the keys are large and easy to read, it has a moveable decimal, and a handy backspace key for undoing an errant keystroke without clearing the entire entry. The display is nice and big, slightly tilted for easy viewing, and it has a non-volatile memory so it remembers your stored figures even when turned off. What sets the TI5018 apart from other similar calculators is that instead of shutting itself off automatically after a period of inaction, it has a manual off switch. I can't tell you how many times the battery-saving automatic shutoff on my old Casio wiped out 20 minutes of work when I paused for 5 minutes to answer the door. Besides, why do Solar powered devices need an auto-shutoff anyway?! After 5 years of heavy use in a dusty environment, the simple to use Texas Instruments TI5018 Desktop Calculator has performed flawlessly. I recently bought two other similar-looking calculators for my home, one from Sharp and one from Radio Shack, and returned them both. I am now purchasing a second Texas Instuments TI5018.
