Hm... doesn't a CAS solve equations like "2x+5=10" (and more advanced ones)?

Solving equations is a part of a CAS, but if a CAS is missing one, it dosen't really not make it a CAS, hence the name "mini CAS" for this tool.  Bwang's symbolic library has a beta of an equation solver, I believe.  I don't think mCAS has a complete equation solver.

Has anyone made a CAS for the 8Xs yet?

I think Symbolic is as close as anyone's going to get. If you wanted to write one, though, it's entirely possible.
∂²Ψ    -(2m(V(x)-E)Ψ
---  = -------------
∂x²        ℏ²Ψ

Well, if you combine some apps/programs such as symbolic/graph3/an integrator/etc... you can come very close.  I think the only way a fully combined CAS (meaning all the same program) would be with a new OS.

I think someone mentioned that the Z80 should be able to handle it...

There already is a CAS for z80: Autocalc.

http://ti.bank.free.fr/index.php?mod=archives&ac=voir&id=981

I also compiled it into an app for more convenience, and added some basic Symbolic and PrettyPrint support. However, since it was packed up with BasicBuilder, this version is a bit slower than the original one:

Wow, it looks great! mCAS is pure Nspire BASIC, right?

Yes.

Sadly I am not sure if I got that software. I'll check into my calc material to see if I might not have a CD or something...

Maybe we can have some kind of trade:
I've got an unused "TI-Nspire CAS Teacher Edition" license number (I've got two licenses and am only using one).
I'd like an unused "TI-Nspire non-CAS Student Edition" software number (note I'm not interested by the CAS version).

I'll check later today I think, if I won't end up loaded with stuff. If I happen to have this software, it will most likely be non-CAS. However, I am not sure if you want a version in particular. My TI-Nspire came with OS 1.6, if I remember, so if you wanted a software version that came before that, it is not guaranteed I might be able to help.

Before the touchpads came out, buying an Nspire did not provide you a licence number to use the software.  It had to be purchased separately.  Once the touchpads came out, the computer software came with a Nspire purchase.  For the original clickpad users, buying one of the $10 light blue touchpads from TI comes with a licence number (I believe this has to be used with OS 2.0 or greater software, though, but I am not sure).

Really? Weird, I wonder what would be the software that comes with my calc, then...

I am a bit confused about these softwares x.x
