As the title says, what do others think is the best "traditional" (i.e. non-VPAM, non-formula entry) Casio scientific?
Being an electronics engineer, my vote is for the FX-61F, for its electronics and engineering specific functions. It is programmable too, not that I really use that feature.
I really like the 32bit binary base feature on the FX-992S, but that's VPAM.

Non VPAM calculators are outdated.. many of the users of the forums never used one!

I guess, that the fx-3900PV may be better.
This is a programmable calculator with 300 program steps, which can be edited (instead of 30 non-editeable in the fx-61F).

One could say RPN calculators are outdated too, yet they have a massive following.
For me, there is just something "right" about post-fix function operators as used on the older non-VPAM units.
VPAM may be great for students who enter formula directly from a text book, but the real world works a bit differently!

Not a chance when it doesn't have base conversion!
The 3600PV would be better in that respect.

Or fx-3800P with Base-N mode and 135 program steps.
