Last week I donated several slide rules to Goodwill; a few were very nice. Meanwhile, I still have a pristine HP-41cx and HP-15c, and an HP-25 app on my iPhone.
I have an HP-15c as well as a 16c and I've been using the latter on a daily basis while writing a byte-level network protocol client. I'm getting faster by the day and on the verge of writing some programs for shortcuts on the calculator. I still use the excellent PCalc as well, but seem to be faster on the physical calculator, which is kind of surprising.
When I was writing a shareware program in x86 assembler and doing a fair amount of bit twiddling, the 16C was really handy. Presumably I still have it around somewhere.
