lol, wow... The button's just a little bit off in color, though

yeah, it doesnt look right
screenshot the whole thing(including the frame underneath), swap in the show button from here, save it as a transparent, and trick everyone

...
still got me, though

yes, off topic, so maybe... what is the TI's response to ndless and nleash? r they going to release a OS '2.2' that will downgrade everything. TI are going too far these days....

Uhm, Ashbad, why did you sent an e-mail to TI using my e-mail address?

I just got the response in my inbox now. Anyway it's the same generic one as someone got a few months ago. I have no clue what you initially said, since the reply doesn't include the quoted text from your e-mail.

Dear Ashbad,

Thanks for your feedback from the perspective of the C / ASM programming and development community. We appreciate feedback from all of customers.

At this time, we offer only the programming functionalities that are resident on the TI-Nspire handheld. Please remember that the TI-Nspire is an educational tool. It is designed for the instructional needs of math and science teachers and learners.

However, we will keep your input in mind as we develop future products.

Best Regards

I'm telling you, there is a spy for TI that knows DJ is a major leader in the community and that Ashbad is a member. Ashbad never sent an e-mail, but TI was playing a practical joke to make it look like Ashbad did and they sent it to DJ for kicks.

If there's a spy, I'm pretty sure he's not registered.

Yeah... But you shouldn't mention those, the spy might be reading this topic

If I may present a solution to an issue that was presented at the beginning of the topic...

TI caters not only to the programming community, but to the teachers. First off, TI should realize that they get a great deal of business from the programming community, from needing new calculators after bricking our own, to just wanting to try out new hardware. They should take that into account when fighting against us with their downgrade protections and PTT features.

But, that is not my point. My point is this...teachers give TI alot of business as well. Many teachers are repulsed by programming abilities, and even discourage it to a point. My math teachers used to do RAM clears and delete our groups all the time and the only way I got around this was to group everything, then use CalcSys to toggle the inGroup value, which hides all groups and programs. Teachers believe that programming allows students to cheat. My question is, does programming our calculator before hand, on our own merit, count as cheating? In my chemistry class, I often made utilities that made chemistry calculations easier. After being initially skeptical of the calculator's ability, my chem teacher became impressed by the software I was making and began distributing the programs to the class online and allowed them to be utilized on tests.

We need to convince teachers that programming is not detrimental, but it can be a great help to in class-activity. The important thing is that my programs in chemistry explained why the calculator was doing what it was doing, not just giving an answer. If we tailor some software toward constructive use in class, teachers will begin to see the value and may clamor for additional programming functionality themselves.
