It was in grade 6 when I first saw an electronic calculator. A big chunky thing with red led display which really chewed batteries.
I did get to use a slide for a little while but I certainly didnt master it before getting my first calculator in year8 I believe.

T-square? For drawing? Yep used one throughout high school before PC's became common.

Who still plays vinyl records? Does anyone still have a turntable capable of playing 78rpm records?
