How many Instructional CDs/DVDs come with this HP 10bII+ Financial Calculator? If so, what is the viewing time of the CD/DVDs and were they hopeful?

one DVD. Yes it's helpful and contains a lot of information. I don't know the viewing time and I'm probably not the best person to ask answer this question because I teach a class on how to use the HP 10BII+ and don't take the time that a new owner would.

It is on cd covers basic situations. BTW the power probe 4 is about to be released might be worth the short wait.

I never used the cd function, but I believe it's just one. Sorry if I'm mistaken however.

It actually comes with a cd but it didnt work for me because of the windows 7 I have.....so i went to the website and downloaded the driver... It was about 10 mins ...Works great ...had it for a couple months with no issues.

I think mine came with a CD but the model is several years old. I replaced it twice and already had the software installed on the laptop. You can retrieve the drivers online on the HP website and they are probably needed for the newer versions of Windows, anyway. I love this little printer, but sadly, there is a flaw eventually with the paper feeder. I end up having to gently push through each page from the tray feeder. Have had the same issue on three machines.

I haven't used hp 10bii so I can't compare them but Texas Instruments BA II plus is very good for my needs and not so difficult to figure out.

Brian, did you recieve an answer to this. I am wondering the same thing. It says DVD but I need a CD!

It came with the disk but i did not find the disk particularly helpful. There is a training document you can find online which I found to be much more helpful.

There must be a quick start guide that comes with the unit, as I remember reading about the changes to the device. It is also available on the HP web site along with some articles on more sophisticated uses such as programming the device. Search using the term "guide" rather than "manual". That fooled me for awhile.

Some MAD man at Amazon mis-typed the description. Had mine for some years now and it has only the one DVD, not two. Says "new" but also only goes to #460 / 2005 plus 8 "Classics" and "XL's". Box says ISBN 0-9768886-6-1. Photo of cover at Absolutely MAD Magazine - 50+ Years also says 1 DVD-ROM. By the way, the scans are modest, probably only 300 dpi (dots per inch) and the JPEG mushes some. The clever margin sketches are barely legible; I'll try to upload an example.

Whenever I buy something I always download the manual so its always handy. This purchase was a gift however so I don't have that info but the web is a goldmine for info so I would check that. Good luck in your search.

The calculator came with a pretty complete manual, which I have long since lost. I generally use a PDF that I downloaded - I keep it on Dropbox so can call it up on my phone. I've scratched two things that I can never remember (set floating decimal, and pair-entry for regression) onto the back.

I had a similar problem with Amazon DVE-R 100 pile I bought.....Think it was just an abberation...but have been carefully buying only DVD+R ever since......also since found they worked as CDs...perhaps just abeled wrong.

10bII+ has more equation functions than the standard 10bII. If you are going to use it for a basic fiance class you will be fine with either, but I think they are they same price so you will just get more with 10bII+, also rumor has it that the 10bII+ runs a bit faster, however that is what my professor told me, as I didn't really get to compare that theory.

This calculator comes with two instruction sheets that are about 24 by 15 inches in size, and they are double sided. The one sheet describes all of the functions of the calculator, while the other provides examples of these functions. It probably would have been nicer to have a booklet format with a table of contents and an index. The sheets are fairly comprehensive though.

You can download a user manual from the HP website: http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.BINARYPORTLET/public/kb/docDisplay/resource.process/?spf_p.tpst=kbDocDisplay_ws_BI&spf_p.rid_kbDocDisplay=docDisplayResURL&javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&spf_p.rst_kbDocDisplay=wsrp-resourceState%3DdocId%253Demr_na-c02989763-1%257CdocLocale%253Den_US&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken That said, I would highly recommend buying the Kaplan Schweser book "Understanding Your Financial Calculator," which offers specific keystroke instructions for the 10bII+, for solving hundreds of the most common financial equations.

I counted what was in the picture, and it looks like 32 CD's fit per row - total of 128. Also, looks like 23 DVDs fit on the bottom - total of 46. Hope this helps.
