Re: TI-H: TI-89/92 ROMs NOT compatible




http://www.eklektix.com/gfc/gsale/ He only has one, though.  How hard would
it be to change the program to suit a different sized hard drive?  Also,
where can you get yours?  Go for 40MB, 2 dollars won't break anyone, even if
noone will go over 20MB in the first place, still, 8 years ago I though I
would never outgrow my 40MB drive!!!  And if we get more space, the programs
can be made bigger, better, and with more cool pics.  Imagine a 100MB calc
game :-)  Anyways, think about it.
