HP 12c - 25th Anniversary (1981 - 2006)

This is a special year for HP 12c. It is 25 years old and still going strong. The HP 12c financial calculator is an iconic consumer electronics product that is still sold under its original name and model number 25 years after it was introduced. With the exception of improved performance due to modern components, the HP 12c that is sold today acts and looks just like it did when it was first snapped up by thousands of financial and real estate students and professionals at its worldwide debut in 1981. Few other products of industrial design have achieved such a classic distinction. At 25, HP 12c that’s sold today acts and looks just like it did when it was first snapped up by thousands of financial and real estate students and professionals.

A well known business correspondent once wrote… I use the HP12c in business school in 1983 and my daughter used the HP12c 20 years later in her MBA classes. Do you have a 12c story to tell? To celebrate the 25th anniversary, Hewlett-Packard is created a new 25th Anniversary Edition of the Hewlett-Packard 12c Platinum Calculator.
