Here's something crazy - so was I. I used regular calculators until I was 30. But one of my bosses had three or four HPs lying around, and when I asked to borrow a calculator, he gave me an HP. He said "it works a little different from a regular calculator. You'll get used to it." That was the extent of my training, and this was before the internet.
After ten minutes, I was hooked.
