Greetings:

This morning on "Fairy Oddparents", a show on
Nickelodeon (kid's channel), the star, Timmy,
brandishes a slide rule during his speech to try and
win the campaign for class president.

He theme was--I'm a geek, and I care, so vote for me.

Now, this is a cartoon, so you could not see any
detail on the SR. But, given that Timmy is 10 years
old, and given the size of the SR in his hands, it
certainly looked to be big enough to be a high-end
power-user rule...

:)
