Re: Preview of the TI-85 Archive!
I have to agree with Ray. There is nothing there that TICalc.org alone
doesnt have. Besides, What is the point of a TI chat?? Someone would have to
be incredibly bored to want to use it. By the way, nice pic of the forum
preview. Hmm, mail lists- at Ticalc. Forums- at TICalc. Also, you're just
going to have the same exact programs that the other TI hubs have. Same
boring stuff. Oh well, maybe it will be a success (hahaha), but I guess
we'll all find out.
