Yes, some display issues with the homescreen, that's true.

Well, if I remember, in the EFnet IRC channel #ti (or maybe it was #omnimaga?) some people reported bugs with MathPrint or fractions, but I forgot what they were. All I know is that they occured without running any BASIC or ASM prog. TI seems to be starting doing the same mistake as in 2001: they don't test their stuff hard enough before releasing it. Look at the first 83+Silver Edition OS (1.13), you could crash your calc WITHOUT ASM!

Even our most renowned third-party apps have bugs too. The TIOS is pretty stable, IMO. If we file enough bug reports, they'll be able to fix most of them, I think.

True, I hope they will also fix the compatibility issues, though. Personally, for ppl who want to play BASIC games and most ASM games, I recommend keeping an older OS in case.

I have to agree with that.
