    I bought one at Poundland last Christmas for, well, a pound. It has all the usual statistical and scientific functions and seems to give the same answers as other more expensive calculators.

    I'd love a symbolic calculator, i.e. one that could solve integrals and other formulae symbolically rather than just numerically.

    Maybe I'm getting old fashioned but does anyone hanker after the old M+ and MR memory keys of yore? Newer calculators come with memory history and extra stores but the old M+ and memory recall was quicker to do than hitting SHIFT-STO, ALPA-[alpha-key]...ALPHA-[alpha-key]. I prefer my old Casio-fx57c over my newer calculators and will miss it greatly when it finally expires.

    Or super-glue a Rolex to it!

    get her a solar powered, low emission , edible in an emergency, jobby. As a potential accountant, she would probably appreciate one that is future proofed against any rise in CED, that's calculator Excise duty.

    Actually an iPhone or iPod Touch is probably a good shout.

    You must really hate her!

    What sort of repeat business is she going to get from clients if she is seen with a Rolex-Calc? “Damn woman must be making a mint of money out of us to have one of those., mutter, mutter, ..... Won’t have her back again”.
