The programming language on Sharp Calcs is extremely similar to TI-BASIC. You'd have no trouble picking it up. They lack getkey unfortunately. The EL-9600 is pretty nice though actually, and even has a touch screen with a stylus. The touch screen is old style and a bit limited, but it does make for pretty easy navigation. When going back to the TI-83+ Series after playing with my Sharp, I kept wanting to touch menus on the screen to navigate them. >< I found a few of them on Ebay, and some were even from Canadian sellers. You can pick on up fairly cheap (~$10-$20) with shipping (at least back when I looked).
*Edit* The EL-9900 is newer and has a faster processor and larger screen. It also has a keypad that you remove and flip over to access different stuff. One side is for like middle school level Math, and the other is for more advanced stuff (highschool/college). Pretty interesting concept. This one lacks the touch screen though. In addition, since it is their current model it is more expensive.

DJ nope. RS232 is 9 pins. Cables with a similar looking connector and more pins are either VGA (15 pins) or parallel.
And IIRC the parallel cable was a homebrew cable.
Serial ports come with various numbers of pins. I think the original design was 25 pins. The graphlink I had was an old gray one and required a 25(i think) to 9 pin adapter. I thought the graphlink was a parallel cable, but thinking back it was probably a serial cable. I'm almost certain.

Is that a pineapple claiming to be a banana?

If this is true, my guess is that it would be a TI-83 Plus.Fr USB with the color screen upgrade and the 84+C OS. Because you know, TI marketing.... I can't imagine them trying to do this with a 6MHZ machine unless major changes were made. We know that won't happen, because that's extra money and dev time they won't spend.

Yea, that's what I figured. Reminds of people that do the stuff with LSDJ and multiple gameboys. Of course, the TI calcs have fewer channels, but same idea.

Looks quite nice Sorunome! ^^

Hmm, isn't 16-bit math sufficient, then? Also, in good news, I actually shaved off close to 18000 more clock cycles from the square root routine, putting it at a little over 3 times faster than TI's. I am back to working on the exponential and logarithm routine, but they are table based (using a single 64-element LUT with 9 bytes to each element). From this I will build the Float->Str routine.
Awesome Xeda!

Very nice Caleb! \o/

The silverlink is one of the cables that uses the I/O port. It has USB on the other end. The other method that uses the I/O port is the old graph link, but most people don't use that anymore. It plugged into the parallel port for communication.

That's definitely neat, but the noise it picks up is unfortunate. I wonder if there's a way to reduce (filter?) that?

Why'd you stop Caleb? Open it!

If an old version of Windows that is 16 bits works on a current generation machine (which I've seen in a Youtube vid) this would suggest that modern PC's do indeed support 16 bit mode.
