Introduction year 1978. It looks very much like the Toshiba SLC-8260.
Most of my colleagues had either the TI-30 or then the TI-45. In addition to their features the TI-25 offered x! and statistical functions.

The comparison of the TI and Toshiba machines is very interesting, nothing I've seen or noticed before. Some of the models are obvious clones with dramatic changes like key coloring or moving the equals key to confuse us customers into thinking they are different models. Most likely, at that time, they were sold into different markets, TI to USA and Toshiba to ROW.

As the intro says the pictures speak for themselves.

Thanks for sharing that.
