...mine is a CASIO fx-451 scientific calculator.
And that's exactly what it is: decimal, binary, octal, hex, deg, rad, 
scientific modes, lots of physical constants (with units - was 
especially handy during school :-)), hex numbers enterd without shift 
or other special key and function keys for neg, not, and, or, xor, 
xnor, together with the usual trigonometry, algebra, 6 parenthesis 
levels and several stak memories (R, P, X, Y and M). Oh, and it is 
still very handy for newsgroups where americans post with its 
conversions between SI units and all this cumbersome F, gal, oz stuff ;-
