__v_____v_____v_____v____
Thank you for your recent e-mail.
I have checked the file and my opinion has not changed regarding this
ROM
version.
Texas Instruments does not grant the right to distribute or modify TI
calculator ROM versions. When people do, they are doing so in
violation of
Texas Instruments copyright protections.
If you have any further questions or comments please feel free to
contact
us at your convenience. Please copy this message in your response and
send
directly to ti-cares@ti.com for faster service on replies.
Kind regards,
John Onufreiczuk
