Re: TI-H: New Calculator!!!
That's how much ram it takes; however, Apple is not known for allowing
people to use ROMs and the software in situations like this. If you go this
route, you can a) Try to retrofit an existing Mac Rom into the system. Many
pieces of software have gone this route, however, for it to be legal, you
must dump it off a Macintosh you own, and then not use the Mac, or B) Go
Ardi's route with Executor, and clean-room rewrite everything.. and that
much effort is probably prohibative.
