    Anyone know if the TI calcs to RPN?

    IMHO if it can't do RPN it doesn't deserve to be called a scientific calculator. For that matter, anyone not using RPN should think twice about calling themselves and engineer or scientist :).

    Did I miss something? It's just a frickin calculator! Yeah, it can graph and all that, but SO WHAT! You'll use it for your math classes and then it'll sit and collect dust. What a waste!
