The Ti 92 is not allowed for some exams in the States because it has a
qwerty keyboard : it's considered as a computer ! The Ti 89 has no
qwerty keyboard, so it's allowed because it's not a computer. This
sounds ridiculous since the two calcs can perform the same abstract
symbol manipulations, but dura lex sed lex !
