Re: Question about TI-83+

    I must say (with no hatred or disgust in my voice) that iMacs shouldn't be
sold at all, they are sorry excuses for computers, and the do less then my old
beat up batteryless TI-80.  The reason why they should come with the cable is
because it is much easier to buy the cable and the 83+ at the same time and in
the same package because it is simpler, faster, and more convienent, if almost
everyone with an 83+ is going to want one (which they will most likely), then
why make then buy it and have it shipped seperately or have them go out to get
it as a seperate thing, it's kind of pointless.
