You know, using TI's circuit design factory wouldn't be a bad idea, IMO. they do great work with circuit boards, and the TI calculator is just a branch of their company. The majority of their business is in making PCBs and ICs for other companies. I don't think we'd be able to make enough, or high quality enough PCBs for this without an outside company, plus they can make it super cheap.  They also already have an awesome ARM processor going in the OMAP series, among others. Don't hate me for suggesting using TI.

Welcome! We love to see new faces around here. Love the starcraft rickroll

1) Should come with #2, if you buy it with it. It will usually come with it, even when the calc is used 2) either Configuration will work. the clickpad + touch KB will probably be slightly cheaper, because most people see it as an older calc. Also, it will look nicer with the clickpad matching 3) Is this about #2? :O Just use an old computer you have lying around. Or, if there's a thirft store nearby, bring a monitor and test the computers there until you find one. I recommend (not necessary) at least a PII/PIII or AMD equivalent. Prices: 1) Realistic 2) Unrealistic (think $50 if you're lucky, +10 for the other keypad) 3) Realistic, if you go to the right place. 4) I got a serial-link and graph-link for around $17 each on ebay, you might get them for $10 if you're lucky. Just what I've seen. you might find them for less.

If my parents saw that on my firefox window, they'd freak

right. Hopefully, they don't see this and start checking all the pages constantly.

nothing, my comment on the board was in a code block. Sorry for the misconception.
Edit: added bolded words

He probably changes the URL instead of pressing next. Sometimes it's faster.

I didn't tell them how we use ndless or anything. I don't even have that kind of stuff. I just sent a request for the keys (without calling them that) and put it in code so they couldn't google it. If they do give me the key, you can bet I'll post it everywhere I can . And scrawl it on 50 pieces of paper at my house too.

@gkaee
Don't fret too much. Ndless will come out for up to 2.0 (2.1?) eventually!

@lionel Well, I was counting algorithms as an optimization... Hehehe, I just submitted a support request politely asking for the RSA keys for the nspire. It would be so funny if, on the off chance we got someone who didn't know what they were, they searched, found them and gave them to us.
I put it in code so they can't google it.

Darn. Well, there's always ndless, then we do the same thing. Or, is there a way to change the boot1? that would be nice.

Well, if the boot2 is overwritten, can we still access the maintenance menu? if so, we can install a regular OS no problem. I mean, clearly calc84maniac had no trouble sending more programs to his nspire while developing, so I don't think we'll have any problems. Not that I'm the expert on it By standard library are you referring to the #include header files? DevkitARM comes with many such libs, for C and C++. Just look under DevkitARM/arm-eabi/include.

Well, if we don't ever care about getting the original OS running at the same time, then we don't need the boot2, right? With the z80 nspire emu coming, perhaps we could integrate it. (with permission from the devs, of course, and provide your own rom ) Then, you have no fewer math functions than before, and no real reason to switch back to the nspire os! qazz, while ndless2 will rock, This will beat back TI just as much (if not more) Maybe we could port Octave and Xoctave for CAS, plus 3d graphing and more! The nspire can probably handle it.

I was just thinking, as i remembered a conversation with calc84maniac a while ago. He said he loaded his asm by sending the file as boot2 code (or something like that) and that gave me a thought. What would happen if you made an asm program that ran through that (or ndless) that would act like an OS, but when you turned it off, it would just go into a form of standby (kind of like the nspire already does ) that way, it doesn't do any validation checks, and you run a custom os! Sure, there would be problems, like when crashes occur it would need to be reinstalled. Still though, I think it would be much nicer than the regular nspire OS. Is there any way for ndless asm to permanently alter the calculator BIOS in such a way to make it sustainable? Sorry if this was a bad idea. I would've used the IRC, but I've been kind of pressed for time lately, and forum topics are less demanding.

Wow! So...can ncaster and this run in tandem very well? also, how hard would it be to adapt it for the ceiling as well?
I hope I don't ask too much. I just had a crazy idea for a game used with this, and Ceilings would make it even better.
It's nice how much easier and faster greyscale is on the nspire....
