Getting closer.

The FX-82 is not a single model. It is a family of models with different 
capabilities and different look and feel.

What I am looking for is a gizzmo that looks identical over the last many 
decades (except for different "Made In xxx" etc).

One manufacturer. One model. Looks exactly the same.

Hint3: If you have one you probably wear a tie.
