RE: A92: TI ANNOUNCES NEW CALC!!!!!




Then just don't buy it! I think the TI-89 was intended for people that 
didn't already have a TI-92, in which case, it can be a very good deal. It 
costs less than a TI-92 WITHOUT a Plus add-on, but it has it built in.

Does this tick anyone else off?  I think that it is great that they are
making new calculators, but when they make ones that are almost exactly
the same as another, but add one or two extra functions, it seems to me
that they are just trying to make a few bucks...
Oh well...
