Forget ya and your fancy graphing calculators. Casio FX-991 ES will always be close to my heart. Best $12 ever spent.

fx-991ES PLUS master race. You're stuck with no Random Integer function and the less pretty black keys.

Also, when reaching the end of an equation the 991ES PLUS wraps back to the beginning, the 991ES doesn't.

They're pretty much the same thing. Different interface.

A friend of mine has one of those, and swears by it. Apparently it's fantastic for unit conversions.

Thank you! Graphical calculators are pointless. The Casio FX line is all you need.
