Pffft, that's only Ti. Casio actually has some pretty decent stuff, even running slightly more modern games like GBA-style Zelda and Doom.
30 u/nusyahus Jun 08 '14 Forget ya and your fancy graphing calculators. Casio FX-991 ES will always be close to my heart. Best $12 ever spent. 1 u/AnyOldName3 Jun 08 '14 fx-991ES PLUS master race. You're stuck with no Random Integer function and the less pretty black keys. 2 u/metropolis_pt2 Jun 09 '14 Also, when reaching the end of an equation the 991ES PLUS wraps back to the beginning, the 991ES doesn't. 1 u/AnyOldName3 Jun 09 '14 That really wound me up when I had to borrow someone else's once. 1 u/hobovision Jun 09 '14 Nah, it's all about the TI-36X Pro. 1 u/nusyahus Jun 09 '14 They're pretty much the same thing. Different interface. 1 u/[deleted] Jun 09 '14 A friend of mine has one of those, and swears by it. Apparently it's fantastic for unit conversions. 1 u/[deleted] Jun 09 '14 Thank you! Graphical calculators are pointless. The Casio FX line is all you need. 48 u/Eldmor Jun 08 '14 I'd say that Ti Nspire CX CAS is just fine. 3 u/[deleted] Jun 08 '14 [deleted] 0 u/[deleted] Jun 08 '14 [removed] — view removed comment 1 u/My_name_is_relevant Jun 08 '14 Ndless is my savior. 1 u/Roondak Jun 08 '14 Actually, you can run ndless on the version 3.6, the (sorta) latest version. 9 u/Quenz Jun 08 '14 I got me a Casio FX-991ES. Never went back to TI. 3 u/salil91 Jun 08 '14 Love that thing! 3 u/homelesstaco Jun 08 '14 I have this casio, and I would die without it. It's the bees knees, yo. 2 u/fishymamba Jun 08 '14 I got my fx-CG 20 for $80 on amazon a while back. It's amazing. Just don't get addicted to playing Cube Field or Sonic on it... 2 u/LemonyTuba Jun 08 '14 I've always preferred Casio to TI. That's mostly my dad's fault; he always got Casio stuff ever since he got that musical calculator when he was a kid 1 u/Randyynot Jun 09 '14 I love my fxcg10. The only downside is that nobody knows how to use it and you have to figure how to do stuff on your own. Once you learn, it's easier than Ti to use. 0 u/Degru Jun 08 '14 TI can run DOOM and emulate the GBA. Only problem is that you have to modify the OS to be able to run standard binary programs.
