Ok, just a few corrections:

The order (to the extent of my knowledge) was 81, 85, 82, 80, 92, 83, 86, 92+,
(73? 89? which one came first?)

and the 83 added more than assembly to the 82:

bigger lists and matrices
unlimited number and names of lists (and matrices?)
strings
scrolling PRGM menu :-)
something else
financial stuff
other things...
