Details
The HP 12c Platinum is a functionally extended revision to the 12C. The 12c Platinum, which was introduced in 2003, is visibly distinguished by its silver-colored upper half as opposed to the gold-colored plate on the original 12c. There are five variants of the HP 12c Platinum (including two special issues). This seems to be the version: 12C Platinum 'regular' version (2010). (source: Flickr / Keith Midson) This newer version of the HP 12c Platinum has parentheses on the blue-shifted functions of the STO and RCL keys. They also support undo and backspace and provide memory for up to 81 registers. The firmware changes increased the ROM size beyond the capabilities of the original processor, so it was replaced by the Generalplus GPLB31A (with 8502 core), which is also faster.
