One of the updates to the NSpire CX were soft buttons. I was one of the ones who first thought 'Woah, soft buttons, awesome!'.
But now that I think about it with my TV remote on my desk, I can see that soft buttons are terrible for calculators. What I like about the 83+Series buttons is that they are like PS2 remote's buttons, easy to click and allow super fast clicking (I type and use a calculator really fast). Soft buttons don't really allow that.
So do you think they are any good?

So if I would make a great game I might get in the list?
Yup

"The OS is signed with a 1024-bit key"
In the middle of the .tno fiel code is a key? Sorry I understand what it does, just not what it is.

@Stefen: Yup.

The checksum makes sense, thanks.
"Not only a checksum, don't you also have to factor the 1024-bit signing keys?"
What is that?

The other day I decided to experiment changing the TI-NSpire OS to something made by me. Of course I knew that I had to study the OSs made by Texas Instruments first, it's what I did.
I don't know ARM9 Assembly, so all I could do were some tiny experiments:
Experiment 1
I changed, in the code, 631 to 632. I was editing TI-Nspire-2.1.0.631.tno and in the code (hex to string) it said 'TI-NSpire.tno 2.10.631'. I changed the '631' to '632'. Tried putting it in my calculator and it said corrupted.
Experiment 2->30
I tried changing half-bytes, so 'DB' to 'DA' and stuff like that, also tried changing entire bytes, I made, in the overall, more than 30 different attempts to changing the OS (half-bytes!). All of them, Computer Link software said 'corrupted'.
Conclusion and Questions
Has any of you successfully changed anything in any of the OSs?
How come the Computer Link software be so good at detecting corruptions (Internet connection?)?.
My next experiment will be bit-changing, I'll open the binary of it, and change 1 bit in the code, then I'll see if Computer Link Software still states it as corrupted.

A joke about my education system (which is one of the worst I know):
Opposition Party Leader: Mr Prime Minister, our country is so bad than girls who are trying to get a degree need to become prostitutes in order to pay University!
Prime Minister: You're mistaken, our country is so good, that even prostitutes can get degrees!
EDIT: No offense to prostitutes, sorry.

After a long conversation on IRC, below, hidden is the log, I decided to create this topic for further discussion of each country's educational system. <Scout> Also, do you know that everybody in my country who is licensed (has a degree) is called 'doctor'?
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> the workload and deadlines pressure was just too much for me
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> I see
<Scout> Unless if you're an Engineer, then you're an Engineer
<Scout> And a few others, but all degrees are Doctors
<Scout> Doctor with Caps D is when you doctorate and Dr is when you are real doctor (Medicine), doctor is for everyone ;D
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> over here a doctor both means someone who got a top-tier diploma in uni (doctorat) or someone who heal sick people at hospitals
<SpyBot45> (O) New post by Freyaday in What am I doing wrong here? http://omniurl.tk/6746/124625
<OmnomIRC> <Xeda112358> It takes 10 years after highschhol to be labled a Doctor, here.
<Scout> Xeda, it's not years, I guess
<Scout> I mean, I can stay there 10 years, but I got to do things
<Scout> You can take 100 years or 10 years
<Scout> (I guess, otherwise it's ridiculous)

<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> Over here it works that way
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> 7 years of elementary school including kindergarten (starting at 5 or 6 year old), 5 years of hi school, then you have the option to choose the following paths:
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> no further studies, but then you are limited in what job you can have
<Scout> 5 years of High School? i have 3 here :P
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> professional studies: a lower version of college that lasts between 1 and 1.5 year, is cheaper and is more oriented towards manual work
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> college technique: 3 years of college
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> university: 2 years of college followed by 3 years of university, 5 years of it or 8
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> I think it's also possible to merge both
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> so you save 1 year
<OmnomIRC> <Xeda112358> We have PreSchool, Kindergarten, grades 1~6 for elementary (8 years)
<SpyBot45> (O) New post by DJ_O in Post nDoom bug reports here. http://omniurl.tk/6735/124628
<OmnomIRC> <Xeda112358> then 6 years for middle school and high school
<OmnomIRC> <DJ_O> Idk if pre-school still exists here. IIRC it was opt
In my country, here's how it works: - 6 or 7 years old - Primary School (lasts 4 years)
- Then is Basic School (lasts 5 years)
- Then is High School (lasts 3 years) (most are 17 by now)
- Then you have University which is 3 years of licensing in most degrees, but it depends on the degree and each person's choices
Note: Instead of taking High School, you can have 3 years that are called 'Professional Courses' aimed at people who want to work when they're 18 in a specific (usually manual) job.

Yeah, I know I'm new here but when I saw this topic, I couldn't resist talking about this game.
I play armagetron advanced a few month now and its really cool, epic.
Many people like playing fortress or sumo, but I prefer Wildcat.
(Armagetron advanced is a FREE tron game in 3d, for mac, windows and linux)
What topic?

ruler501, I'm a programmer so my way to proof stuff is by making a program with a for loop that tests all numbers, so here is my way of proofing that 2x=3x-x:
for x in range(-100000,100000):
if 2x != 3x-x:
print "ERROR"
It will never print ERROR (I think).
Maybe this will help you.
EDIT:
>>> def proofTeory():
for x in range(-100000,100000):
if 2*x != 3*x-x:
print "ERROR"
>>> proofTeory()
>>> #Nothing Happened

In some cases, people give up on IE: They only make sure in IE it works, without worrying about showing fine.
Yeah, especially for IE7 and below. Sometimes I even add a nasty surprise for them so they at least upgrade to IE8 
I love IE9 by the way, it's so pretty (the UI).
