I always had fun with the Casio FX-7000G, the first
graphing calculator from
'85. With a whopping 422 bytes of memory and holds 10 programs with a huge
96x64 pixels display. Mine's a littlle dusty now, but still works. I heard
some schools outlawed these in the beginning cause it was so easy to cheat
;)
Hmm, I had one like that - not the original black model though, but the
grey one which came a little later. I don't remember the differences now
(more memory?) but it was basically the same thing, I think.
I still have mine in storage, and I remember I added some trailing wires
and a PP3 battery socket as I was fed up of it chewing its way through the
little coin-cell internal batteries.
There was a nice little Mandelbrot program for it, which would take several
hours to run.
