Microsoft® Announces Windows Vista^TM for the TI-82	Andy
The result of a bizzare court battle over the licensing of Microsoft® Windows Vista^TM has forced Microsoft® to announce a version for the TI-82. Initial reports indicate that it comes on a custom ROM chip which snaps over the original ROM (similar to the Texas Instruments 80486SXLC2), and provides a switch which sticks out the back to allow you to choose between Windows® and TI-OS. This also gives you an additional 128 MiB of RAM and 2 GiB of EEPROM for running programs and storing data, respectively. Response times are surprising fast, considering it's Windows®. Microsoft, Windows, and Windows Vista are trademarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and other countries. Update: Yes, in case you didn't figure it out, it was a joke.

MORE BREAKING NEWS!	Jayhawk
It has just been reported that Russian "hackers" are immediately planning to port Code Red, Nimda, SoBig, Blaster, Netsky, and other useful little "programs" to the TI-82! Congratulations, TI-82 users, today is indeed a banner day for new software for your calculator!

Re: MORE BREAKING NEWS!	VutonTheta
indeed, and they continue to be illogical and do not port to the better calcs. It just so happens they don't have brains... :)

It would have been cooler with a real TI-82 picture and the screen being pasted onto that.

Didn't get me at all, considering I was on mIRC when they were talking about this at 8 pm my time yesterday.

http://www.calchaven.org/jcarticle.html Mostly just for laughs, rather than an actual trick. But I did spend time making it. :P
