Re: Instructions for use same/similar 83/86



Most operations are very similar or the same of both calculators. If you don't
mind not being able to link and exchange programs and data with the other
students, then go for the TI-86. The only things that the TI-83 can do that
the TI-86 can't are inferential statistics and financial functions.

I am considering purchasing the TI-86 for a class where the
instructor and most students will be using 83s. Will I, as a new
user, be at a disadvantage? Or are the MOs of the two machines
similar enough that the differences wont be noticeable? Thanks
for your opinion. By the way, they are available here in a local
Walmart for $120.
