It's too bad only 2 other kids beside me at school have a TI-89, or I'd have so much fun distributing homemade "games" ... :b

That's how it was at my school. Me and two other kids had 89's. I would've done something sooner if I had known. They had been deprived 3/4 of the year. Except I'm not good enough to make any "games"... yet.

I have a TI-89. They rule don't they? I got a TI-83+ first though. I can screw up people's TI-83+'s by taking a battery out when sending an operating system. It makes their calculator inoperable for over 2 hours.

If we did then I never met him. I went to PGJHR in Utah and I knew everyone that had 89s. I made sure of that. I think.

They kinda forgot the "No, I'm to damned cool to actually bugger up something."

I just can't help being perfect.


My mum always said don't lie.
Modesty is not being completely frank and honest.
That's why I lack any form of modesty.

Oh yeah? well sue me! (There was a kid at my school who used an 89 on the SOLs, so he had to retake them!)
Also, my teacher didn't check to see if i had any programs on my SE.

Yeah, but can't you use NOPROGS? It makes it appear that there's no programs on your calc

<gospel truth>The only time Win2K has crashed on my PC is when I installed APM support on my *really* old motherboard- all that meant is that every time I shut down the PC would turn on again, wait 30 seconds, spin up the hard disk, then boot Windows. Ah well, APM doesn't really matter, does it?</gospel truth>

Is that the 'end of term' or the 'end of actually having any schools'

The latter does sound sweet doesn't it.
