Hello Valentin,

I don't understand that either. They had everything in that calculator already. And there is still a market for good quality BASIC programmable calculators as Ti shows us every day...
A reason why I like the Ti Voyage 200 so much is because for me it is kind of a 21st century successor of the HP-71B: With a dedicated typewriter keyboard, an excellent BASIC language and connectivity. Plus of course some modern goodies like a fast processor, plenty of memory, a graphic display and CAS.

The large size ruins the format of the PDF I intend to create with this thread, as I usually do.

I just resized them to 640 pixels (for nostalgic reasons only because 640 x 480 pixels was at one time _the_ standard for video graphics displays...). If this is still too large I can reduce them further.

Regards
Max
