Zooming in just above the minus sign on the left we have in a blue cirlce the words: "April's fool" FYI

how can you make out what anything says on that calculator when you zoom in on it? I mean I have tryed it my self and have not been able to find anything. The picture is such a poor quality.

I bet this could be an april fool...

me and my friend sean always pictured the day when TI and Casio would merg. Casio has a screwed up line of calcs that have three colors on them. The day has finally come, but casio is not in the deal and TI comes out with a 256 colored calc... THIS IS INDEPENDANCE DAY!!!!!

(they tricked you)

Yeah, the have color, but the are horribly slow.

Sweet april fools.

Well... 35 minutes until it's no longer April Fools Day... GMT, that is... I guess we'll see then... unless these ticalc people are some twisted cats (A Magnus thong? Why aren't you really making them? I'd bet some people would really buy them if only for the novelty of it...) Anywho... yeah.

Wow. Looks awesome. I've never seen a color calc before. But what's the price tag on something like this?

I guess we will see in August in the back-to-school season.

Except for the fact that it doesn't exist :-D

heh... well, according to a news item on another popular calc site, you shouldn't be a in a position to dispute the matter... ;)

Awww.... It's too bad this is a fake news item... that's pretty cool though. Nice Adobe PhotoShop work, TI-Calc staff.

Ya looks fake to me the plate around the screen looks really fake.

the plate around the screen in actually on the V200.

what are you talking about you little suck-up? That Adobe Photoshop work is HORRIBLE. I knew that was fake from the start. It's more like u|\|1337 skills that 31337 skills. bleh.

It's not that bad... it looks somewhat credible. It fooled enough people here :) Even so MV, I do NOT ph33r j00r p1c7uR3 5k1ll5 (or whatever j00 said)

I used Paint Shop Pro...Photoshop is way too expensive.

It actually looked better when it was 640x480 but then the image would have taken up too much space.

I have no 31337 graphics skills sadly enough...I received a B in middle school art.

Yeah, PSP is the best. And the art job was pretty good. However, I think if anyone else had posted a comment like "ph33r my 31337 9R@pHIC5 5kilL5!" or even "w00t! I r0x0rz!" their post would have been deleted by you within the hour. Shame on the double standard.
P.S. You should have said "Second Update!", too!

It's April Fools'...The whole article is off-topic enough already :)

i use Paint Shop Pro as well, and probaby would have used it over photoshop (er, of COURSE I paid for both of them!!!;). You should have done a blur average to make it a little more convincing.

I worked with a 2048x1536 Voyage 200 photo, and then when I was ready for the final image I shrunk it down and then applied a noise filter so as to simulate a cheap webcam effect. I also applied a mosaic effect to the screen so it would look like individual pixels, but I don't think it showed anyway.
