I was just interested if anyone has this so...

Anyone uses this great calculator? Its the TI-89 Titanium.
It's has an ok programming language called TI-BASIC which is really a smaller version of BASIC.

This is the best calculator I've got and it can do lots of stuff.

I <3 them. I'm in the process of purchasing a TI-92 right now. The big square one with the full keyboard.

lol I remember back when the most advanced was like a TI-81 and my math teacher said, "These calculators have more power than the computer systems that sent the astronauts to the moon". rofl

Don't underestimate these calculators. They are powerful enough to support a 3D engine with polygonal lighting(in grayscale).

Heh
I use it mostly for playing some games and programming.
Doitle, are you buying a 92 or 92+ ? (92+'s better) and when you get your calc, could you help me beta test something?

You should be able to do all the things you can with a TI with an iPod.

Too true.

But then there is a difference of doing basic math, and Calculus Wink

Pretty much the only thing I use a calculator for is speed when using a large amount of numbers, or figuring out how much tax was paid on something when all you have is the total.

I used to have PacMan on my graphics calculator. Good times.

Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

I have a TI 83 and I love it. I'm pretty pro at programming for it. Programs, not games though. I used to have a copy of duckhunt for it. That rocked.

Er no. My school had everyone buy this calc but then the math course right now prohibits use of calcs during exams. So...I just program some stuff on it.

Most teachers at my school don't allow the use of calculators, some allow scientific calculators, but only for certain sections. Big difference from high school when you would fail tests if you didn't have a ti-83.

I got a TI-84+, but as mentioned above, I am not allowed to use it for university exams... Useful here at home though for figuring out graphing problems Smile
