It is an RPN calculator aimed at computer programmers with support for hex, binary, octal and decimal and all sorts of useful operations like bit shifting, masking and rotations. I don't own one myself, I have a [Swiss Micro's DM16L] (https://www.swissmicros.com/en/products/dm16l), a high quality modern day remake with improvements like a 2 line display. There is a limited run [collectors edition of the HP 16C] (https://hpcalcs.com/product/hp-16c-collectors-edition/) coming soon though. But none of those calculators run Linux. This post goes into detail on my updated linux port for the HP Prime G2. The HP Prime G2 has a 528 MHz ARM Cortex A7 CPU, 256 MB of RAM and 512 MB flash. My updates linux port includes a touchscreen driver for the Ilitek ILI211X, better keyboard support, working X11, Doom and a C compiler. This post also covers other calculators and a Windows port for the Prime G2. Sat, 01 Aug 2026 20:08:00 GMT Sat, 01 Aug 2026 20:08:00 GMT
