Oh. Oops... Well, their calculators still aren't very sturdy. :)

Every time I look at TI's calculator web
site, I see that they state their
calculators' features in terms of "bid specifications". Now I find that
creepy, personally. I always thought that TI didn't care very much about
its calculators (anyone see any vintage TI calculators to go with the fine
HP machines at the last VCF?). But if TI puts bids out, then they care even
less than I thought. Unless they have some perverse internal bid system?
No, that's TI bidding the calculators to school districts. Obviously
they have to build what their customers want.
