Fran is an interesting character. She's actually 83 years old. That kind of explains her love of old timey electronics.
Except for the gray hair, she could pass for her mid-40's in her face, and her alertness as well as her character.
That's what I used to think too.
A Texas Instrements TI-30 calculator, possibly a programmable calculator.
Not programmable, I used to carry one in my flight bag. It's still around here somewhere. It came with a little vinyl zippered bag printed in a denim look.
Why do you think I'm falling in love with the gal? She's me, with her Y chromosome changed to X. (That's before there were 72 genders)

Maybe I'm thinking of a TI-55. He could put small 3" magnetic strips through it to program it or some such. There was a calculator game we kids could play on it. Battleship type game where you gotta sink a sub. Put in coords for a depth charge and it tells you how far away it was and then it moves a little bit.
A game that was all just pure numbers. No fancy graphics, joysticks, or music playing.
