Cool 2 seconds to know original citizen calculator

hi,
i am back with a small fun post.Its long since i have posted here something and thought to get over with this. post.Now with computers calculators are almost becoming delustered and unfashionable.

But many do use calculators and citizen co. calculators are good ones.But whats the way to know whether you have original Citizen calculator.

One of my acquaintance came over and told me how to know whether your calculator is original Citizen.Its a 2 seconds work to know whether its original one or not

Just press the following buttons in calculators at a time:-

Division sign
Multiplication sign
Percentage sign
Check button
and twice CorrectDelete button

If your calculator is original than it will not OFF but if its duplicate it will get OFF.(of course you can on by AC/ON Button).Unluckily mine was duplicate
This way on spot at shop also u can know whether u are buying original calculator.
(NOTE: This applies to CITIZEN calculators only)

Do people really use calculators anymore? Its been more then ten years since I last used one
I normally use the one in my phone or when I am sitting infront of the PC I use the one in accesories.

Smile LOL....but many do use it.

As nations are emerging with IT, most urban people wont use it but many do and thats why calculator companies are surviving.And also calculator beside with u can do more freely any operation than on mobile.PC is good.

Commercial people and companies do use calculators for calculations because not most people in india use computer for that and mobile takes time for calculations(typing keys).
Let me remind you that there was a time when people didnt use to have calculators and having a good one was a status

Anyway try preserving our IT heritage(Calculators)

Its good to find the tip here. I used buy almost one in two months. I use it only for my college works. Because in the examination hall phones are not used. So there is no other way to go. We highly depend on the calculators. The market is flooded with the duplicate copies of the calculators. Am sure we will get only the deserved calci anymore.
