Sharp EL-1197PIII 12-digit desktop calculator
Ordered this same calculator on 8/31/2024 no problem. This calculator has a detachable power cord but the cord has slits in it as if it is cut. Not the same cord as previous calculator purchased. Cord is much thicker and not detachable. See attached pictures.

Why the change?
Commas separating 1 000's are now located at the top of numbers rather than at the bottom where they have been since the invention of the calculator! Sharp support states "that's the way they are now"

Great calculator
I used a Sharp calculator when I worked and I bought one when I retired. It lasted me ten years. I believe Sharp brand is one of the best. I like the big numbers easy to read. I recommend it for anyone looking for a new calculator.

Nice improvements over the previous model. The green color of the display shows up well. Printing mechanism has a softer function than the older model. Great for old school folks who still appreciate such things.
