- Just a reminder to those who think of using rechargeables in their 48
- - the manual specifically warns you not to.

- Why bother? - you probably spend far more in a year on donuts than

- couch every so often to change channels for exercise)

- Also to any of you who still pine for the days when HP calc.s had rechargeable
- power packs - I certainly don't! These gizmos were the first and usually
