I program calculators because programming is fun, and my calc is there as a robust programming platform. The only reason I would stop calc coding is if I had a powerful laptop with me all of the time, and then I would repay the calc community's awesomeness by souping up their calcs even more.

Also, I'm hoping that calc programming will develop to a state that will allow for calcs to be used as personal computers for poorer cities and countries: instead of purchasing a bunch of computers, you use a calculator and connect it to a computer whenever you need to publish something - or better yet, bypass the computer and connect directly to the Internet or to a printer. Of course, you would need to disable these features at will, or they wouldn't count as calcs anymore.

Of course, because it's handheld and allowed in classrooms.
Philosophy class is useless and boring (example: our teacher said that Leonardo da Vinci was gay, and that with sublimation, he became a genius. lolwut ?). You look strange with a calculator in a Philosophy class, but less than with a computer. So I need games to not be bored, but sometimes, I can't find the game I am looking for so I make it.

I do it because axeis a relatively easy language that's constabtly being updated - also because it's unobtrusove in your average classroom ^^

I still use my TI because it's easier to write a simulation program very quickly for a calculator in Axe or BASIC than a "real" language.

I use my Prizm because of 133. 'Nuff said Tongue
