Do you have a Casio calc?
« on: April 17, 2011, 02:57:54 pm »
Just wondering who has a Casio calc since I'm planning on getting a Casio fx-9860G Slim. :)

I don't own any Casios. But I have and have had a TI-Nspire, TI-84 Plus SE, two TI-86's, and one of the very first TI-89's.

Got a FX-9750GII+ for about $50 from walmart.
Then, hacked it into a FX-9850GII, has everything but the fancy case and backlight (same hardware and everything)

So, yes ;D

I have a prizm. keep in mind, though, if you've ever programmed in TI-basic, casio basic is gonna feel quite different. I learned that the hard way :P

Casio BASIC isn't really that different. The instructions have different names, but that's about it (aside from the annoying variable access).

We probably have some non-graphic casio calcs here at home.
But I don't have a scientific one.

If you didn't get the slim already, and you want the technology of the 9860g...
You can get a 9750gii+ from walmart, about $50, then once you have it, look at this. http://ourl.ca/7951

It's a way to hack it into a 9860gii, which has the same stuff (if not more) than the 9860g (and the slim version of it) so for about $50 you get a ~$100 calc.
Worked for me ;D

I'm sure someone here could go on about the difference between the 9860g and the 9860gii better than I could tho...

Also, see http://www.casiocalc.org/?showtopic=4379&st=0&p=47402&#entry47402 , it has some info and discussion about the different models.

I voted 3, but in fact the 3 first options apply to me:

FX-7000G
FX-7700GE
CFX-9850G
FX-9750G Plus
FX-7400G Plus
FX 1.0 Plus
FX-9860G running OS 2.0
FX-cg10 (Casio PRIZM)

I didn't get the 9860G Slim because I never could find one anywhere on Ebay.

I have many CASIO scientific calculators. In fact in our country only scientific calculators are allowed to be used in a test.
I have
fx-82es version A , version B
fx-95es plus
fx-82MS
All of these except the fx-95es plus can be upgraded to a 991es/MS one.(the most advanced one in its series)
There are some ways to upgrade by software or hardware operating. I found a lot of fun on it.

I see.

Is the software upgrade done by doing something with the hardware inside the calculator? I remember some tutorials on Casio-BANK website where you could turn some scientific Casio calcs into better ones.

Do they have any other graphing calculators besides the TI-Nspire CAS where you live?

I purchased a Prizm yesterday and it exceeded my expectations. The menu style navigation is a bit different, but that's only because I'm used to TI's layout.

@Daryl: Was the hacking process relatively straightforward ? I May consider getting one of the 9750s as well if that's the case.

I've had a Prizm since the day it came out. Even though drawing in BASIC is slow I love how it is backwards compatible with all previous Casio graphing calcs. I also like how it is much more acceptive of asm code than the nspire is.
Logged

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)
