I have been forced by my trig teacher to borrow his calc to use for a test instead of my own--I have too many programs for his tests.
Aside from that, I have never borrowed a calc from anyone, except my dad (which I don't think counts). I loan my calcs for games/programs, but, after using my calc with all of its programs, apps, games, et c., all other calcs seem unsatisfying. And now that I have a Voyage, which never leaves my sight unless it's in my backpack, there's really no point to using any other calc.

I'm super devoted to my TI-84 Plus SE since I only got it last week.

I only know one other person who has an 83+ series calc at my school, so if anything, people would borrow it from me, which they don't do anyway.

Does "Forgetting where it is and not particulary caring that it's missing" count as other?

If I lost anything worth more than 50 bucks, I'd be pretty worried about what happened to it.

So why are you on these forums if you've lost your calc and don't care? :-) (Unless you use VTI or TiLEM for everything)

I'd classify that as calculator neglect, and the calc should be taken from you immediately. Of course, if it can't be found in the first place...

im the only person at my school with a ti series calc so i barely get to use mine but the school has over 500 i mean it and im in middle school so i like adding games to them so all the other kids can play them then ill have a calc to my self

How could you?!!

I can't go 24 hours without using my voyage for something, and if I have no "real" reason to use it then I think of some program that I might need sometime in the next five years and write it....

I take my ti-89 every where with me, when I went to Boston this weekend (I live in Maine) I took it with me, and programed the whole 3.5 hour train ride there and back. I can't imagine loosing it, even for a second.

Exactly. That's what I do on plane flights from here to New York and back (I live in Illinois). And waits at the airport.

thats what i did on the drive to destin florida when i was a noob programmer.... lol, i made a program that makes a bomb drop then it explodes, i exploited that it takes a milli second to do a command so i turned pixels on and off the whole screen to draw a bomb falling then an uprise of smoke and a car fliing and when i had to pause a picture i just kept on putting recall pic X i didnt knowe for lop but now i have optomized that and made way better ones *note only person at school that can program

Ive borrowed a 84 once because I forgot my calcs and I have borrowed one person's 89 because there's a great minesweeper game -- better than mine. The only one I borrow to mess up is an 83/+ because it's the only one I know how to fix without a computer -- the others are too fancy/too nice to mess up

I don't use my Ti-84 for gaming... I use it for more educational purposes such as programming games =D. Currently learning z80 assembly!

I have games on my 84+SE but i rarely play them. i mostly make my own games and i am also currently learning z80 asm
