I'm totally confused about what this product does. As a gag gift it wouldn't work because it says crash in the upper right of the screen. Than the product description is:

"Everybody has an impulse to CRASH!We seek for the excitement of crashing in this calculator. You will be driven to crashing with the unpredictable action it makes. Calculate to crash, get an answer to crash… Enjoy yourself by operating this uncontroll"

What the hell does any of this mean?

@Curves: Is accounting humor anything like chemist humor?

For example:

Do you have mole problems?

If so, call Avogadro at 602-1023.

Does the manufacturer understand that messing with the keypad is a good way of pissing off the target market?

Kind of expensive for a gag gift, even for accountant you dont like on April 14th. I use a calculator or numberic key pad a lot, by touch, and this would drive me crazy, especially the crashing part.
