Thank god someone here can understand constructive criticizm. I
understand that this is a big undertaking, but all-in-all this will end
up being quite economical. That is, once I can find a reasonably fast
way to switch from one processor to another besides finding a compatible
processor that is my biggest obstacle. I understand that I will totally
screw two or three calculators before this works, but I've already found
two used ones that frequently freeze, and aren't very useful to their
owners.
(P.S. There are plenty of rich morons who aren't worried about breaking
their calculators!)
-Oh, and I NEED BROKEN CALCULATORS!!!!
