only real drawback, no conversion support!  Of course, there might be a Fargo program for that, but I don't know, since I don't HAVE a 92, I just hear the complaints.

I'd stick with the 92.  I use it daily on second year math - prob&stats,
de's, discrete, calqlust, linear alg, and am continually blown away by it's
symbolic power.  Granted, it does have some shortcomings, but it's much
better than a 48gx for general math.
