That sounds like you have a potential short, or you don't use good batteries

Well, progress is progress! It sounds like a big update to me!

The nspire has also existed for a much longer period of time, and it uses a more common architecture.

That's definitely the right answer. Linux fully supports the USB specification, so it's only limited by what USB is limited to. That said, I don't think that will work, since the hubs take up addresses of their own. So, if you've got a setup with branching hubs, each providing 4, then you would need 42 of those addresses for hubs. Computers get around this by having multiple root hubs.

I doubt PRIZM development will ever see nearly as much love as the 84+ series. The 84+ had years of developers working up to it, not only from the 83+, but from all the past z80 calcs all the way back to the 81! The z80 became the de-facto standard for calculator programming, and the community just kept getting better at it.
This has not been the case with the PRIZM. Not that it's a bad platform or anything, it just doesn't have the background. The nspire suffers from a similar dilemma.

They can store it in a hidden location, not necessarily somewhere easy to find.
Seriously, it's way easier to do this than you think.

Technically you can use ntfs, but you shouldn't. The only situation which you should ever need an NTFS partition for is a data partition that needs to be accessible by windows. Your main partition should never be NTFS, since the programs make assumptions that aren't true in that case. (Mainly, you'll have problems with defrag)
Installing from USB is identical to installing from CD.

Oh, ok. Sorry to place the blame wrongly.

It still doesn't draw lines whose endpoints are offscreen. Are you planning on changing that or should I stop pestering you about it?

That doesn't have to be the registry, which I explain in my post. You can write a program very easily that stores data to a file, and later reads that data. How do you think save files work? Writing to the registry is generally harder than using your own files.

Why would you want one that accepts USB power? That just recreates the problem! Your nspire can only put out so much power at a time!

That only works if it stores it in the registry, rather than some encrypted data file (writeback to the binary isn't unheard of) or checking the system clock. Heck, it could very well be some solution they paid for from another company and even they don't know how it works.

So, no way of indicating when you've activated a save location? I can see that being more than a little annoying at times.
Here's a GIF of a possible set of On/Off sprites. As a bonus, they're only 7 pixels tall so you should be able to see your character behind them.

That depends greatly on how the system it uses works. If it does some kind of internal time measurement, then cheating it will be difficult. If it just looks at the system clock, though, you can just set your computer's date back 28 years, which keeps the dates the same.

This is a standard feature with many USB hubs. Just make sure it's a powered hub.
