Are you a geek? Geek test!!! :D

I programmed mine as well - they usually had paper tape or punch cards. The first TI calculator came out the following year, programmable ones after that. I owned an HP desktop calculator for scientific use - it was the size of half the desktop, weighed about a ton.

Never had need of a portable, programmable calculator.

The damn sad part about those calcs is each teacher only allowed a certain model in thier classroom. So at the end of high school i had a TI83 TI86 and a TI89.. lucky i was able to reuse the 86 senior year :eyeroll: then in college i had to downgrade to a basic calc for the first two semesters. Meh.

I'd forgotten those days - yeah - I seem to recall paying over and over for the kids' calculators now that you mention it.

But that's just part of the deal, if it wasn't one thing, it'd be another. What I objected to was that it seemed that classes were being taught in calculator-lus rather than simply teaching first principles in the first place. And to compound matters, as you know, having to re-focus on different models caused as much confusion as anything.

I'd best stop now before I complain about the lawn!

Here are the calculators I use almost daily:

TI-30XIIS (all-around basic calculator)
TI-84 Plus (graphics and programs)
TI-30XS Multiview (it shows fractions and exponents the correct way)
BA II Plus (financial calculator)

Plus the one in my mouse-pad if you remember when I posted about that.

Test time isn't an issue right now for me
I'm testing a new robotic punch and testing the accuracy so it's taking its own sweet time.
