Re: ti89
What are they thinking using a 640x480 screen? TI's engineers must be the
stupidest people around! Don't they know that my computer can do 1240x1024?
I'll bet it's black and white, too! How the @#$% am I supposed to play Doom
on that???? And I can do run Mathematica which is much faster than the 108!
And they're charging $12 for it! I don't have any money (well, except for
the money I spend on my Internet account, PC, school, etc. but that doesn't
count -- I'm really poorer than the people living in the slums of Calcutta).
They should give it away for free, or at least somebody should write an
emulator and send me the ROM.
(note for the humor impaired: this is intended to poke fun at us and our
complaints, not TI)
