Note: I already posted this in the news section but I think u guys should read it here too. : ) |

Makes you wonder, are students actually doing Math on their calculators or playing. That's just a funny thought, students buying calculators not for Math, but for games. |
BullFrog Wraith Posted: 25 Sep 2003 17:48 GMT Total Posts: 623 | I originally got an 89 about 2/3 the way through 9th grade. I rarely actually used it for math... It had, shall we say, exceptionally good graphics for gamin. *cough, cough* (I had been using an 83 Plus on and off previously to that.) But that's my two cents.

TI does advertise us but they obviously don't pay us and neither does EBGames is no one actually buys anything after following our link. However if someone will use it, we'll get a credit and hopefully earn enough to get prizes for some cool contest (i have some nice ideas for a contest btw). Oh yes, 89 still has some pretty darn good graphics for gaming :).

ShockTroop Goliath Posted: 26 Sep 2003 13:57 GMT Total Posts: 170 | When I got my 83+ in about December last year, the first thing I looked for was games. Later I was inspired to make MathSci, and I used it often during math class (of course on the second day or so we spent nearly an hour teaching each other how to use them except I was the only one not being taught lol). When I'm not in math class I've been gaming, and when people at lunch noticed I had the same calculator as they did they say "hey, I want that!! I don't know what the heck I'm doing so you do it!!" or "I wanna play Zelda!" If I had a couple hundred bucks to waste I'll probably get a 92+ for gaming because the graphics are so nice...key word waste lol |

ShockTroop Goliath Posted: 28 Sep 2003 11:26 GMT Total Posts: 170 | Although I haven't checked lately I've noticed that V200 doesn't have much in terms of programs (or not like the 92+ anyway). Besides, wouldn't the 92+ be worth more or somethin like that when it's discontinued? lol just a thought.
Yeah big tangent ;) . |
