Have you walked through a high school recently? At least 90% of the people
with ANY graphing calculator has games or knows how to get them. And you
can't tell me that calcs would be nearly as popular without games. Yeah,
while the calcs would still sell and TI would make money without games, it's
not nearly as much as if they'd, at the least, leave us be.
I don't know... I'm tired of guessing. Anyone know a way we can demand the
official position of TI on the whole game issue and find out what the hell
they're up to?!
