re: Re: Re: A89: Re: Fw: TI-89 ROM 1.05 vs 2.00 version inquiries
I will contact TI so that they won't get a letter that sounds like a whiny little kid. And I didn't
say he was 10, just that he was acting like my 10 year old brother (there's a big difference
there), and I said "bitching" which I consider crass language.
I do agree with you on the HW1 issue. I love my calc and I wouldn't trade it for a HW2
version.
