Maybe this really is a working version that got accidentally leaked?
I don't think they would intentionally add bugs.
My website: Currently boring.

Projects:
Axe Interpreter
   > Core: Done
   > Memory: Need write code to add constants.
   > Graphics: Rewritten.  Needs to integrate sprites with constants.
   > IO: GetKey done.  Need to add mostly homescreen IO stuff.
Croquette:
   > Stomping bugs
   > Internet version: On hold until I can make my website less boring/broken.

Querty.55 -> Can you take some photos/screenshots?

Sorry, but I'm on a school computer, not my own. I'll try to get home ASAP, but it'll take me a while.

Well that's unless the OS that got leaked was still in Beta, though.

Leaked? I doubt they would have leaked it straight to the downloads page. Leaks usually get posted elsewhere.
In-progress: Graviter (...)

Sorry, but I'm on a school computer, not my own. I'll try to get home ASAP, but it'll take me a while.

If you're on a school computer that doesn't even let you make photos/screenshots, how were you able to flash the new OS on your calculator in the 1st place ? . . .


So let's sum up things: strangely, everybody who got a 2.71 copy have computer access problems...
I hope it's just a coincidence...

It can mean it was unintentionally released, either by a staff or intentionally released by a staff elsewhere without TI's permission. In this case it seems to be the former, but I'm unsure yet. If we talk for example about TI-Nspire prototypes on Ebay in 2007, we say they were leaked, as in released to the public even if they were not supposed to.

Qwerty has 2.71MP?  So who else has it.  :D

This might sound odd, but the some of the school computers have TI-connect. I'm seriously not joking. Other students have come up to me and asked how to use it. The computers obviously don't have WabbitEmu, though

Anyway, I'm going home now...

Wow nice. At my school they used Deep Freeze so when computers are shutted down (the teacher turned off a breaker or something), when restarting the hard drive content was reverted back to its saved state.

Anyway I got a reply from ThePenguin77, at last. He sent me a copy of the OS, so I'm gonna try on my calc to make sure it's really the so called OS 2.71 MP.

I'm gonna post a video if it's real.

Hey guys, sorry. I didn't realize I'd be the only person with the OS. I gave DJ the link so you should have a news shortly. I'd post the link here but this is news worthy.
