Is this really a new addition to TI's legal agreement? I could have sworn I read that same line like 8 years ago when I downloaded an OS for my TI-89.

Hey, flyingfisch, you have a banner similar to mine![...]I'll have to buy a Casio Prizm and program some C on that, instead of my TI-89 Titanium. I simply cannot let TI get away with saying this.
"welcome to the world of computers, where everything seems to be based on random number generators"
[...]I don't have more time to spen on stupid arguments like this anyway now, but yeah let's stop this and get back on topic.
Whatever your feelings of <insert device name here> and its manufacturer, discuss them as you might the weather.
Well, I'll just add my little bit and say that you can't use an emulator on a math test. So I can't see students going their entire student career without buying a physical calculator.

After all, it's up to anybody useing it that TI can be angry at, not a service provinding legal emulation which doesn't host anything of TI.

Also, it's wrong to, because of this, start saying bad things about the Ti-84C which may not be the best calculator. Therefore I will not put such banners in my signature.
