I can almost certainly say "no", judging by the response I got when I brought out my 89 and TI-Keyboard during math to write my Pi Day article.

Most likely not seeing as how he was able to type it.
As for the missing 'END TRANSMISSION' class just got over and I was in a hurry and forgot. <threat>So go ahead, use the DMCA in some cruel twisted way against me. :)</threat>

I wonder what my history teacher would do if he saw me typing on a TI-keyboard during his class to take notes (whimpers)

I really have no idea. The only girl I've really had to help with her calc is one in my math class. She has an 89 and I don't think she knows how to use it. So I just ask every now and then to see if she needs help. Other than that . . . nope.

Of course, the occasional how to find the median on an 83/Plus comes up. But really, is that helping?

I'd say the best way would be to mess up the computers when the teacher's not looking.

lol just messed with the AutoCorrect on Word, but lol these computers dump the hard drive every day...I don't know why they'd need 20 GB on all of them, since that's the case

Are they *supposed* to dump every day, or do they actually *do*? In my old school, the admin told us the image was restores on a daily basis. However, a little file I put in the temp directory remained there for multiple month.

That HAS to be one of the best pranks ever! Change all small common words like 'a' 'the' 'it' 'I' 'an' 'of' 'from' 'to' 'by' 'you' 'we' 'they' 'he' 'she' to stuff like "YOU STINK" "NERDS WILL RULE THE WORLD!" "Happy PI DAY!"... etc.

Or make it so when you type in the name of some kid you don't like, it will change it to stupid moron!

I've found my program keypass to be an interesting topic, as well as having my calc tripped out with event hooks. It is a real fun to lend it to people and answer the eventual questions.

On 30 second intervals my calc prints at me: "It puts the lotion on it's skin, or else it gets the hose again."

I act like everything is normal, they ask "why?" I say "why not?". I hope girls are impressed by wierdos.

Sad thing is that in a the engineering curiculum there are not very many females. Specifically for electricals it is 20 males to 1 female.

Note that keypass is a password program that will make the calculator impossible to turn on unless certain keys are being held down.

what kind of calc is that?
can I do stuff like that on an 83+?

**lol for the first time, I'm in the top 1,000 for weekly downloads...yeah, I never thought I'd get 259 people downloading programs about farm animals...**

Well, the 83+SE has a timer, so using a custom interrupt, yeah, I think it should be possible.

Try computer sciences, there are about 130 people in the first year (isn't that what Americans call "freshman year"?) here, and only two of those are female.

Okay, I think we need a better survay...

I personally have no idea if using three calculators in a single day attracts women (I am not sexually attracted to anything, so I would not notice anyway)

I think this survey is great! We have some pretty interesting stories emerging from this :) (And my answer is definitely yes... I'm a chick-magnet, and I don't even try!)
