You should read my post  Quick posting happens

Pros:
You'll have access to the most powerful graphing calculator on the market (prizm is weaker hw, original nspire holds less than cx)
You'll have a color GB emulator
You'll be able to make color calc games on the go
Cons:
More expensive than any other calc on the market (aside from V200s maybe, not sure)
Ndless 3 isn't out yet, so you'll have to wait
You won't get to use any Prizm games n stuff
You have to have a touchpad
You won't have access to any keypad-related hacks (although the dock will still be there)

For 16, use an nspire. It has hardware support for it By the way, the entire concept of "levels" in greyscale doesn't need a pattern, they just reduce the flicker you percieve in the image. For 8 level you need 7 in the cycle: (this is a pattern for one pixel, checkerboarding is still a good idea) (0)0000000, (1)1000000, (2)1000100, (3)1001010, (4)1010101, (5)1101101, (6)1110111, (7)1111111 That's just an example. You want to have the 1s and 0s as well interspersed in the pattern as possible, AND you want the pictures being drawn at 60 FPS! Are you doing this in Asm? Axe won't do it so well, since (unless I missed something in a recent update) it doesn't have timings fast enough for anything greyscale.

a correctly timed pause. See, the actual lcd refreshes at 60 FPS, so you want to match that. Any faster and you miss some frames being shown, any slower and you show the same frame twice, both of which cause flickering. Also, the front sprite looks exactly like the one from the tilemap example in BBC Basic. Is that where you got it? I could see it ending up looking the same by coincidence, though, since it's only 8x8.

apparently you don't have GTK installed. install it.

AHelper, you can make SDCC progs for TIOS, they're just huge, and you need to modify the headers appropriately so they actually get recognized as programs, so unless it's a library problem I would think it would be portable.
(And we do know methods for hacking these things, by the way. It's just unethical, and rather unnecessary seeing as there are already free equivalents)

but Unity runs on the GNOME backend IIRC. It's as much Gnome 3 as MATE is, with the exception of who is developing it (which matters a lot less when you're running off of the same base) A quick wikipedia quote: Unity is a shell interface for the GNOME desktop environment developed by Canonical Ltd for its Ubuntu operating system. See, GNOME Shell is one desktop for GNOME. MATE (a Gnome 2 fork running on gdm3) is another. Unity is yet another. And I prefer XFCE. It gets application compatibility with gnome AND kde programs, and doesn't complain about either (something I've run into problems with trying to run one type off of the other) AND it's significantly faster. It reminds me of Gnome 2, which used to be my favorite, but I'm afraid to use MATE since it looks like they plan on phasing it out eventually. XFCE has no such worries. Edit: Aww, it appears electricsheep doesn't like being screenshotted. oh well. It's the actual program, not a video clip or a still shot! Why, GNOME, must you try to become another KDE4? :'( Plus, GNOME 3 removed screensaver support!  And just to keep it OT, I made electricsheep my Background. It looks awesome.

The nspire rechargeable batteries aren't really very expensive. Replacement cell phone (and DS) batteries can run much higher, and it is shaped perfectly, plus being easy to set up. Nice salvage operation, though!

I wonder if you could convince TI to release the boot2 keys for the CAS+, so you could update the boot2 to allow the higher OS versions.

Sorry, my uncle is not for sale.

For the name......how about Halberd?

I think the majority of people on omni don't know enough on ndless's inner workings to reveal such things anyways, since extended is fairly tight-lipped on exploit methods.
My uncle worked at TI before, but not in the education area. He did presentations on their microcontrollers and ARM processors in foreign countries.

Hmm, I like that dpad style. I always preferred separated arrows, although some say they're bad for street fighter.

It seems ironic that, while TI is a US Company, the US is last to see their new products.

It would, in either circumstance One requires hours of soldering, while the other requires complicated assembly programming on two separate platforms, neither of which I have programmed on. Plus, I lost my silverlink, so programming the 92 is kind of a lost cause.
