Casio
FX-700P

The FX-700P is quite the same machine as the PB-100, but is a member of the more scientifically oriented FX product family. Consequentially, it is called "Programmable Calculator", as most FX family members.

It has 2 KB RAM, i.e. it was equipped with two HD61914 RAM chip instead of one like the PB-100, but no further RAM expansion was ever made available.
Moreover, the mathematical functions (SIN, COS, etc.) were assigned to the keyboard, by means of an additional function key. Apart from that, the hardware of the two machines is identical.


 

Two corrections:
1. In Russian, MK stands for "microcomputer".
2. MK-85 has the body cloned from Casio but it''s absolutely different inside. MK-85 is 16-bit and it''s compatible (to a degree) with DEC PDP boxes. E.g. one of its variations was used for strong cryptography (to wire money transfers via unsafe public networks).

Original design of MK-85 (with misleading name MK-87) has nothing common with Casio: http://www.computerra.ru/upload/apismenny/elektronika-mk-87-1.jpg

This was cloned down to the buttons by the Soviets as the Elektronika MK-85....probably had different guts (the Soviets had round microchips for calculators for some reason.)

"MK" stands for "mark." Elektronika was a stock name for electronic gadgets made in the USSR that weren''t radios.
