@freemo Basically, all the "new" (still kinda old) ones that had the logarithm bug. Plus, I'm just not a fan of how any of the (somehow popular) TI-30's look. Not to mention how they don't even bother to differentiate versions. There's a 30XIIS that actually has okay buttons (and better colours), but it's actually an older model that they don't sell anymore. It shares the same name with a number of other 30XIIS'.

@freemo I think their graphing calculators in general are slightly better, but a bunch of their normal scientific calculators have mushy mistake-prone buttons. I've also dug up an old TI-34 that had okay buttons, but the screen somehow died while in storage. Every student was basically forced to buy a TI-30XIIS (or variant) for like a decade plus, and it might just be the worst value for a calculator ever.

Unpopular opinion: Texas Instrument calculators kind of suck, in terms of build quality.

I also go through like half a dozen versions of pretend-angry before admitting that I'm actually sad.

@Gargron It's the easiest way to get to the public page.
