You lucky man. Mine used a TI/59 until 1995, when he switched to MS Works 2.0 
for Windows 3.11. But he's 63 now, I don't blame him. His point is that "to
calculate an heat exchanger, you don't need many calculations". :)
Times have changed, and my brother was taught (Visual) C++ at uni. Both
are chemical engineers, and I think my family has skipped the Fortran
Generation... :)
(yes, I am the blacksheep of the family, kinda "my son/brother works
with computers" - frustrating!)
