    Default Help me choose a graphing calc.

    Hey, I need some help. I'm going to buy a graphing calculator for school tomorrow and I have narrowed it down to 2 options. The TI-83 Plus and the TI-84 Plus. Here are the things I want in a calc:

    Speed
    Well Known (in case I need help with anything)
    Good apps have been made for it
    Memory
    Ease of use
    Easy to transfer files (apps) from my Mac to the calc
    Bang for the buck

    Thanks

    The 84 has alot more memory, connects via USB and come preloaded with more goodies.

    Yeah, I have a couple, but they are definitely not as good as the real thing

    I've used both a TI-83+ and an 84+, get the 84+ if you want memory because they are both very similar, just the 84 is better all-around.

    Skip the 83-84 and jump straight to the TI-89. It's by far the best calculator I've ever used.

    I'm a helpful jerk, fear me.

    It's the bestest calculator ever. My TI-89 got me through college and I will rather sell my iPhone before selling my calculator <3
