I watched a one-second-long video once, which was actually just a fullscreen version of the Windows "searching for file" icon.

can you really even consider it a "video?"

Jim e made a grayscale porn Dragon ball z video for 83+SE I need to watch it someday

j/k it isnt porn

I've seen it.. it's 18 seconds long.. but it takes up like 96K haha.. 8-level grayscale

The grayscale looks nice, but too big. If TI decides to make any improvemnts to their future calcs, memory will have to be increased a lot.

If the USB driver for the 84+ (?) was ported over to 68k calcs, it might be possible to watch reasonable-quality videos, considering the higher resolution and the processing power.

Ummm… 89 Ti?

On a side note, it's really too bad this is Windows-only.

I was about to say that you should try it in WINE, then looked at your profile and saw that you use OS X. Isn't there a Windows/x86 emulator for Macs?

yes there is one called Guest PC. See link

But that costs money. I use Q (OS X version of qemu), but I can barely get Ubuntu to run (speed-wise) in emulation and Vista beta 2 doesn't like the fake BIOS.

/me hearts menuetos

The processor has a slower clock rate in the 89 Titanium than the 83s and 84s, but only by a few megaherts.

It is also a 68K instead of a Z80. The Z80 is not particularly known for having efficient cycle usage, & if I remember correctly, is worse than the 68K by a bit (not to mention that more bits usually equalls faster processing).

i know this has nothing to do with your comment, but i'm asking you this because you seem like you would know...
while programming in z80, is there a register that can manage numbers biggr than 65535? if there is, can you tell me? Or if there's something you have to mess with to get 'hl' to hold more or something...

You can use a and hl or b and de for 24-bit numbers. There aren't any instructions that handle those, but on the 86 there are some ROM calls that'll manipulate them.

My two friends and I are going to take over NASA.
I am going to be the engineer and computer programmer, etc. guy,
my first friend is going to do all the typing and writing,
and my second is going to be the janitor.
LOL.

You weren't supposed to tell us!

So are you going to make a video for the calculator of all this?

No. It will be a bit of a random movie that starts with two cars raceing and ends with California breaking off of the U.S.

There is already a flash where California breaks off the U.S. It is called something like "the end of the world"

I decided to chuck the idea. I am now working on Wheel Of Fortune.

I once programmed my TI-92+ to graph in cursive (using parametric mode) my name & the name of the girl I liked at the time. I still have the GDBs on there (though they are just taking up space, like all the hordes of functions I write to do something & then forget...what were "fff" & "etl," anyway? :)). I think I also did it on my TI-86, but if so I have no idea which backup has the GDBs anymore (& TiLP does not want to work right on my system :().
