I never turn it on, so...

So why are you here?

He programs for them... and IMHO is quite good! (I still am in awe of his drawline routine.)

MWM

why the heck did you buy it?!?!?

I didn't say I never turned it on, just not any more. I used it back in high school.

oh...

Or maybe he doesn't have to turn it on since he never turns it off!

I don't have unlimited batteries, unfortunately.

My 83+SE crashes somewhere between "a couple times a week" and "Once or twice a month", depending on how much I use it.

I have an 83+SE, and mine almost never crashes... unless I want it too to clear out some stuff.

My TI-89 and TI-89 Titanium only crash when I mess around with the Exec command, and occasionally when I run assembly programs (which I hardly EVER do). My TI-84 Plus Silver Edition has NEVER crashed. Therefore, I generally get 1 crash every other month.

yes, the 84pse is a nice, stable calc. If it does crash due to mirage errors, just archive all of your files, then mirage can't delete them. that's what huge archive space is for! (see my above post for details)

check my lame website!

Don't like MirageOS, don't use MirageOS. My TI-84 Plus SE has never had an assembly program on it, just third-party FlashApps and TI-Basic programs.

The only difference between flash apps and asm programs are where they're run from...

"If it does crash due to mirage errors"

Pfft, let's get one thing right. MirageOS does not -cause- the errors. Whatever ASM program you were running caused it. MirageOS is extremley stable, try crashing it without ever running a program. Next, mirage doesn't delete your games when it errors. The TIOS does when it resets RAM.

Yeah, it's really annoying to see misplaced blame like that. Just like when Windows crashes and the user blames their poor computer hardware, which is 100% fine, intact, functional, and bug-free...

In my case, once, it wasn't. I had forgotten to plug the CPU fan in...

WE DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR F'D UP WEBSITE!!!! These message boards are THE cleanest you'll ever see. Keep it like that.

I believe that it is spelled, "effed".

d00d, what's with the pop-up at your site?

free site hosters -- you get what you pay for

Mine's free, has PHP and MySQL bundled with it, and no text ads, banners, or pop-ups of any sort.

You should use FireFox. It automatically blocks pop-ups. I haven't seen one since I started using it.

Yes, and FireFox usually works faster than Internet Explorer, too!

Great browser, FireFox is. One of the best out there for Windows. I, however, am a Mac user primarily, and therefore prefer to use Safari when on a Mac. I keep FireFox around just in case I need it for something.

Firefox is faster than *anything* else...

It also isn't slow, bloated and over-featured like the newer versions of Netscape, or under-featured and full of security holes like IE.

"Firefox is faster than *anything* else..."

Lier. Ever used Lynx?

Nope. telnet is the fastest http browser.
