As for geometry, I love it, but I can't seem to figure out how to enter
values for measurments (i.e. number of angle degrees), and that makes
it a bit more frustrating. Anyone figure out how?

The trouble with that is that there is no way to convert .92T files
into .TXT or .DOC files, other than copying and pasting to Notepad or
Word from TI-GRAPH LINK 92 (and vice versa). Could someone write a
program which would do that? Or even better, a Fargo word processor
and a separate PC program so that it can be converted to Word
afterwards?

And the custom menu, not to mention the catalog with syntax
instructions

Many people in this thread have commented on a ML solution to a problem
with the HP's speed in doing stuff, but when (if?) Fargo comes out, why
not do the same for that Matrix thing which was also mentioned? If
someone could develop a faster and/or more accurate way of doing
certain things through Fargo, then by all means, make a separate math
utility to do so! Better yet, anything which the TI-92 can't do, let
Fargo take over!
