1440x900; hasn't changed from last year (maximum my LCD supports).

But since that's not listed, and I don't have any current plans for a new calculator, “becoming a better programmer” was the closest match for me.

Lol I still use a CRT monitor. I have two LCD screens but one is 15 inch only and the other one is 37 inch and is too far from the PC. Aside from that I currently use a 17 inch CRT and I got another 15 inch one. All have a max resolution of 1280x1024, except the big LCD screen, which is 1366x768 max

5040x1050 for me. :)

24:5?! ~5:1!!!!!

Actually, make that 1440x900-1... I just discovered a dead pixel. :-) (This is the first time I've ever seen one, oddly enough.)

I wish that my New Years Resolution could be that high...but too bad the 15-year-old CRT I use can only handle 1024 by 768 without blowing up...

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I was stuck with a 1024x768 resolution and a crappy blurry monitor for a really long time before I was finally able to get a decent one.

Buy two more calcs.

So far I got TI-73 (non-explorer), 80, 81, 82, 83, two 83+ (one has busted link port), TI-83+SE (the calc that drains batteries in 2 days of non-use), TI-85, TI-86, TI-89 Titanium, TI-92 I, Casio FX-7000G and Casio FX-9750G. I plan to get two of the followings: TI-84+, TI-84+SE, TI-Nspire (non CAS), Casio FX-9860G+ and/or Voyage 200.

If I manage to find one of the super rare TI-92 expansion kits (preferably the Plus Module) I might get this instead if it's not too expensive, then I would end up with a 92+ HW1

I have:

TI-73 (one with boot code 1.3004 and OS 1.3004, one is the one used to develop Mallard, one is an Explorer, and the other is an Explorer in an 84+/SE style case)
TI-80
TI-81 (one regular, one which is the ViewScreen model, and another broken one)
TI-82
TI-82 Stats
TI-83
TI-83 Plus (translucent blue)
TI-83 Plus Silver Edition
TI-84 Plus (regular black, and translucent)
TI-84 Plus Silver Edition (one regular with orange faceplate/slidecase, and light blue one)
TI-85
TI-86 (and another broken one)
TI-89 (HW1)
TI-89 Titanium (HW4)
TI-92
TI-92 with Plus module
Voyage 200 (and another broken one)
TI-Nspire
TI-Nspire CAS+ (prototype)

I'm probably leaving something out, but I think that's right.

You Win Brandon!

I have:

TI84 Plus Edition

Yeah, that's it.

Ha! I have exactly twice as much calculator power as someone!

Yeah, two 84+s for me. I think I'll need to get an 89 soon, though.

I have 3.5 times your power!
TI-85 old style ROM 9.0
TI-89 Titanium HW4 OS3.10
TI-84+ OS2.43

OWNED!!! I have a TI-85, TI-89T, and an iPod!!!!!

You're owned back! An iPod is not a TI calc.

Not a jailbroken one with a simulator... Totals 2+1/2

Do you also have one that came in a box saying "Collect them all!", or was that your own idea? :p

Poor TI, how are they ever gonna make a profit with customers like you... ;)

Awesome dude! I have a TI-84 + SE with silver faceplate and grey slidecase and an orange TI-83+ with grey slidecase. I loose pieces easily... Well anyway, i program the ti-84+SE mostly, and am working on a game called CHORPIOS (kor pi us): Legend of Mara. check out my about me page for more info...also check out my website, its about the RPG runescape...awesome game...wel anyway g2g. ANYONE KNOW HOW TO POST FILE ON TICALC? I'M NEW!

Go to http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/#2 (or click the “web page” link at the top of this post under my name) and check the section “CONTRIBUTING TO OUR ARCHIVES”. This should give you enough information to get started. If you still have questions, feel free to email filearchive@ticalc.org. Hope that helps!

Thanks for the help, i will look at it. I have been loking for this questions aswer sice i joined, i have so much to contribute, and my calc memory is filling up too fast( LOL! ).

I have a TI-55
It doesn't work though :(

wow never heard of this one. I know about the TI-59 and TI-99 but not the 57. I am curious if there are any TI calcs besides graphing ones that are able to make games, at least as good as you could on a TI-80 or 81? I know they wouldn't be played much though, since non-graphic programmable calcs were not used a lot in schools

It is not really a "game," but I used to try to make my TI-36X Solar make fake numbers by covering the solar panel for a while. I got things like numbers that were not in proper scientific notation, or numbers that would have >59 minutes or seconds when converted to degrees-minutes-seconds, & they would act like different numbers depending upon which operations were applied. That would probably work on any solar-powered calculator unless it had a brown-out detector.

The TI-36X Solar also had a self-test (other people from my high school called it a "screen saver") accessible by holding the 4 buttons in a square in the lower left corner & pressing ON/AC.

I did something similar a couple of years ago with an old Casio QA-100 time calculator. It wasn't solar powered, but I could get strange results like that by removing the watch battery for a while and putting it back in without pressing the Reset button that you're supposed to press after replacing the batteries. A lot of times it would function normally, but often the display would be temporarily scrambled, the clock would show strange dates (like 1/0 or 0/0), and the value stored in the calculator memory would sometimes have letters or spaces in the value. I found out that it has 16 characters in its “character set”: the digits 0–9, of course, then a dash, the letters A and L (normally used to show the “AL” alarm indicator when setting the alarm), and four blank space characters.

Then there was the time I took advantage of a quirk of my VCR (caused by aging of the mechanism which causes rewind to often be very difficult) to cause the tape counter to go past the 9h:59m:59s mark it was intended to and show other characters in place of the first ‘9’. This allowed me to map out the entire on-screen character set of that VCR model... but that's too long of a story to recount here. Now maybe if we could discover another loophole that would unlock ASM programming on it. j/k
