My teacher has an 89 with sticky Coke keys, and a friend of mine has an 86. I have never seen an Nspire or V200! The rest of the calcs i've seen are all 83/84.

I don't know anyone with another 68k calculator... then again, I don't know anyone with an Nspire either- everyone I know has an 83+/84+.

Although, the 68k would seem to have one advantage over the Nspire for programmers- TI isn't actively fighting assembly support for it. I imagine when Ndless ends up supporting Nspire 2.0, TI will release another version with some of the exploits fixed, and so on... whereas, there hasn't been a new 68k OS (or hardware version) for a while now.

And in addition to calculator (and Python!) stuff, I mod Civilization 4 (frequently with Python).

Yeah true, it seems like TI wanted to allow ASM dev on those lower models including the 83+ but for newer ones, changed their mentality :(
