At first I was like, "Nice April Fools!" and then I was like "No! No! I don't believe it!" when I saw the pics, and then I was like, "... Where'd critor get the Navigator attachment?"

Nice job!

The Navigator module in unrelated.
It's just that I usually keep it plugged.

Fun fact: When OSLauncher was posted on April 1st 2011, it was an April Fools prank using a fake calculator picture. However, OSLauncher actually existed for real: It was just released weeks later :P

Nope ;)
I started developing OSLauncher, as an independent reimplementation of the unreleased RunOS, after the April Fools prank :)

EDIT: I took your post's meaning to be "Cependant, OSLauncher existait vraiment [déjà, au moment du poisson d'avril]: il a simplement été publié quelques semaines plus tard". Juju indicates me that you probably didn't mean that OSLauncher existed (was already in development) before the April fools joke, i.e. probably something along the lines of "Cependant, OSLauncher a fini par exister réellement: il a simplement été publié quelques mois plus tard". Apologies for my possible misunderstanding, and the original form of the reply.

Are you saying this just to deny what I say even though it's real or are you playing along with a prank? Because based on past experiences in the last two years (especially recently after I set you on my ignore list for PMs for trying to control how Omnimaga is run), everytime I say something you seem to find entertainment in trying to deny everything I said and then you put an annoying ";)" and/or ":)" in the sentences like if you meant to be naughty or laughing at the other person. I wish this forum had an ignore function that worked forum-wide, not just PM...

I don't think Lionel is lying. I often argue with him, mostly about the behaviour coders should get in front of TI blocking Ndless, but I never saw him lie.
And he always put smileys like ";)" or ":)", as I always put smileys like ":P", I don't think it was meant to be naughty.

Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.

You state, as a "fun fact", that OSLauncher did exist before the April Fools prank in 2011, but the thing is, it didn't, as the April Fools prank is precisely what got me started.
So I'm trying to explain that what you state as fact is not, and I am trying to be nice - hence the usage of smilies: most people interpret lack of smilies as not being nice.

Maybe you didn't read any of the occurrences of me mentioning that OSLauncher is a byproduct of the April Fools prank, or maybe you just forgot: all of us are just human beings, with our faulty memories, limited free time, and mistakes.

I wasn't refering to OSLauncher/nLaunch only, but also every single occurence where we interacted with each others in the past 2 years. In fact, it even happened before.

Example: In 2010, after numerous incidents between me and TI-BANK, I decided to use English as a mean of communication for most conversations with people from France, including yourself, in order to reduce risks of misunderstandings resulting from the heavier difference between Quebec and France slang compared to English as a second language. I later stated it publicly, then you outright embarrassed me by denying that any of our convos occured in English, even though all private ones we had at that point occured in English (in fact, afterward, we discussed in French only on May 4th and 30th 2011). Forums don't count, because we have to use them in the language they're meant to be.

This is an old story, but you do this everytime and if it isn't for the sole purpose of embarrassing people, then I don't know what it is.  For today's instance I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, though, in case it's part of an 4-1 prank, but if I am really wrong, then on April 2nd I would prefer to confirm it with a different TI-Planet admin who was involved with the previous prank. For now the issue is closed: I'm just taking any denying from you with a grain of salt from now on.

EDIT: Just noticed your previous edit: Actually I wasn't sure if OSLauncher was already being developed at the time the joke was posted, but I did remember that when it was finally flagged as a prank, the news said that it was actually gonna be real soon, implying that it was either being developed or was gonna be developed soon.

To hide something?

On my TI-Nspire CX there's nothing below the TI-Nspire CX logo, so there's nothing to hide.

That is unless, of course, if the so-called TI-Nspire Premium is real and that the green thing hides "PREMIUM" :trollface:

Or he's got an early CAS version w/ CAS under the letters... Would explain why he doesn't show the keypad.

It's just a sticker I use to identify my own CX calculators when I use them in class, as they aren't labeled "school property".
The TI-Nspire CX Premium doesn't look like that at all.

By the way, here is a CX running a CM OS:

Hmm, if you check TI-Planet:

-83+ in 84+ case worldwide says it's an April fools joke (poisson d'avril in French)
-Same for the French TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition
-HOWEVER, nLaunch CX is still not flagged as a prank. Does it mean it's actually real? O.O
