Yes, Virgina, there is an 83+. If you ever get on the web, go to
www.ti.com/calc/docs/83plus.html. It's an entirely new calculator; you can't
attach something to an 83 to make an 83+. It costs $5-$10 more than an 83. It
has a somewhat large archive memory, upgradable flash ROM, split screen for
the graph and table (it looks very strange on the small screen) and the keys
are much more visually pleasing, similar to the keys on the 89. Of course,
it's electronically upgradable.
