Comment: This calculator was worth the money. I wish such a tool existed when I was going through school. I purchased it for my daughter and it should get her all the way through college.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Cheaper Elsewhere
Comment: I bought this calculator for my daughter in high school at a cost of $114. Before it was shipped, my wife found it at Walmart for $79. The only diffrence was that it was not the silver edition. I believe that means that the $79 one is black instead of silver. If the color dosen't matter to you, I'd buy it from Walmart.

Summary: College students, meet your new best friend
Comment: You can't know how invaluable this little thing is until you have to take the dreaded Calculus.
I'm in high school and currently taking Pre-Calculus and in a month I'm starting AP Calculus. While in high school, I was enrolled in an early college program. I've managed to ace my College Statistics, Geometry, Algebra without the help of any Texas Instrument calculators. Got by with a simple scientific calculator.
But Pre-Calc is a different matter. We were required to use TI 84 Plus Silver Edition. And I'm glad I learned how to use it before heading off to college. I just know that this handy device is going to save me tears when it's time for College Calculus.
STARTING:
I'm still learning how to use the device. It can get a little overwhelming at first because of the many buttons and the many functions. Yes, it is intimidating and yes, it is a little complicated.
But be patient, read the manual or get the book TI 84 for Dummies.
THE PRICE:
I do agree that it is very pricey, especially for student budget. It can really hurt your meager student savings, like it did mine. But this is a good investment, especially if you are planning to major in something involving a lot of math.
THE LOOK:
Not bad. It's silver so it looks a bit more elegant than the previous black TI Calculators. There's also other colors to choose from like pink, blue, purple and orange. No matter how much tempted I am to buy the girly pink TI84, I settled for a neutral silver because I might decide to bequeath it to someone else if I purchase a new one later on.
It is a little bulky and heavy for me. But one thing I can say for it is that it is tough. Mine hit the concrete floor about 3 times already. It sustained a little scratch but that is it.
