Yeah, isn't that the truth. As a physics major, math minor, I haven't
used my calculator (TI-89) for anything more than basic arithmetic
('cause I'm too lazy to add, and my arithmetic stinks because I've
always had a crutch) in at least 2 years. Every now and then it comes
in handy to do a graph or slope field, but even that is pretty rare.
I've actually stopped taking it to class. Instead, I bring a solar
powered scientific calculator (in case I need to use trig functions).
Much more handy. And plus, I don't have to worry about losing the
$100 or so to replace the TI if it were stolen (like my original 82)
or lost.
Peace,
Drew

yeah, sometimes I choose not to use a calculator for some problems.
Physics and chem problems that is. My calculator can't keep up with
my math anymore
