<p>That's not the point..</p>
<p>The point is that you don't need some big fancy calculator for HS when no one else will be able to help you use it.</p>
<p>And how the heck do you have a Masters at 22? Did you start college when you were like 15?</p>
<p>The 89 seems completely crazy and unnecessary to me, but I guess it might not if you'll be an engineering model... my TI-84+ has never let me down. ♥</p>
<p>again.. lets go with i think i would know high school better...</p>
<p>TI-84 plus here and working great (college sophomore, mathematics major taking two junior level calculus classes this fall).</p>
<p>The one thing about HP-50 is the Ti-89 has websites inundated with programs to do a good 80% of your work effortlessly, and you can put it in a Ti-83 case if anyone whines. I intend to get an 89 for AB Calc unless I opt for the new Ti-NSPIRE, which sadly appears to not support programming so much.</p>
