Admitted - I have never inverted a 30x30 matrix by hand and it's pretty much
over the top if you are doing such calculations in the field. BUT - this was
only an example to show that in any numerical calculation the HP48 has the
TI beat.
Try solving something (e.g. (e^x)*sqrt(3)-3=5), this will leave the TI's in
the dust (the example returns x=0.382533849......in just over 1 sec.).
