I didn't get anything directly TI related, but I did get a 17" LCD display for my desktop. It's so nice I'm now spending more time on the computer each day (with less eyestrain) and so my ASM coding will increase during winter break :)

Cool! I got an 89!!!!

number 6 (on no). the calculator frenzy has sure died down for me in the last year or two.

Yeah I agree. I really am not into calculators as much as I was one year ago. I have two 89s (hardware 1 I may add) and one 83+
There isn't really anything else I need.

I wanted one of those kornie colored slide cases for my lovely ti89 (too much to ask for?), but instead i got a longsleeve shirt... so much for a lovely ti-gift... oh well...

I got a TI-89!!!! I'm so happy with it.

I get one of them from my parents the year I take calculus. (Hah, I can't even spell it!)

Can't spell... what? You got everything right.

it

Yeah, lots of people around here have that problem. everyone seems to think it's spelled TI :-)

I've been in calc for 2 years already - and i still shorten it to calc, because I can never remember whether it's calculus, or calculas! :-)

How old are most people who program/have a calculator? At first I thought everybody was as young as I am but I'm only 13! I got my first calculator when I was 11, though. And your all taking calculus!

Well, I' 13 and I program ASM and basic on my 86. I got the 86 this year because I'm in Algebra 2 and last year I had a ti 82. So there is an age span.

Sweet! So did I! I got my TI-82 when I was 11.

I was 14 when I got my 89 I am now sixteen and bought three 83+'s,one 83, 2 89's and one 92+.

I AM GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well then why do bad things happen to good people?

HE DOESN'T KNOW CAUSE HE IS NOT GOD!!!

well, first you have to understand that we are here on Earth to be tested. 2nd, you have to know that the better you do on the test, the more glory you get in heaven. Good people have already taken the lower quizes, and passed those. a bad thing happening to someone is another quiz, if it's a good person, then it's a higher quiz. you must also understand that the quizes are not the same for all people, but in the end, it pays to be a good person FOREVER. (for more on God's plan, click above link)

U NEVER GOT A 92+!

U R NOT GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO U R NOT GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!

AND U DO NOT OWN A 92+

I got an 89 for myself last year, and im only 15. I program C, TI-BASIC(For my TI89),C++, Visual BASIC, and many more :P.

I think you summed up just about everything I was about to say, except the signature...

I also have an 83+, why the heck would you want anything else?

Is there a (big) difference between C and C++ ???

of course there's a BIG difference: OOP!

I got my first calc (83+) in 7th grade and immediately learned TI-BASIC. In 8th grade I learned ASM, and now I'm in 9th grade with two SE's (one of which is unopened and for sale!) and nothing has really changed. But there really is an age span with calcs. My French teacher got me started with calcs, and I have far surpassed him in programming and equipment possession. So, that goes to show that calc nerds come in all ages and sizes.

Thats interesting, that pretty much happened to me. And I speek french. But why did your french teacher us calcs? For me, my physics teacher is the teacher with calc intrest at my school. But I guess anyone can have an intrest in calcs.

Your grammar's pretty bad too.

Oh my gosh! So did I!!!! Cool!
