well, I'm gonna do both =) tomorrow I'm stopping by radio shack and
getting the stuff for turboing my calc. in teh process I'll attach the
link port to the switch I use =) If somebody would be nice to figure out
that memory location and the #'s I'll put together a snazy calc. security
program that'll let you disable any of the os's applications, eg.
graphing, linking, or even runing programs =) all this woudl be done with
a nice windows format so the user woudl never have to worry about numbers
or other cruddy stuff. If I have the numbers and the memory location I
think I could easily whip this out =) just tell me what you guys find out.
