      It’s powerful, for sure. The only reason I bought it, though, was for calc 3. Most of the time, I prefer the TI-86. Custom menus that are one button away, a great unit convertor that is two buttons. Super easy to program for. And, it just looks good.

      I also really like the Casio FX-9750GIII.

        I’ve just been using 89s since I was in middle school. Always liked them. Always kept with them. My main calculator is a 20 year old 89 Titanium. Those things are built like tanks.

        Though it may be a bit of a ship of Theseus. I’ve replaced the cover and battery cover 2-3 times, and I even replaced the tiny backup battery cover once.
