Is it possible to run a TI-84+ OS on a TI-84+CSE?

dreamdragon:
question from a crazy lunatic 15 year older... :crazy:
is there a way to run a virtual machine on the ti 84+c se?
the one os i want to be able to install & run would be the one for ti 84+se, or ti84+! ._.
ben_g:
A virtual machine can only emulate devices with lower specs than the machine you run it on. The ti-84+CSE has the same specs as the 84+ (apart from the larger archieve), so it won't be able to run the normal 84+ OS.
calc84maniac:
Technically, an emulator might be possible (emulating the 48KB RAM models), but it would take a lot of work and could be pretty slow.

A mac os running on your windows compuer would actually be running on higher specs....not lower specs(especially if the pc is for windows xp) >:(

Except that the Windows computer wouldn't be actually emulating the Mac OS. It would be running it directly. Emulating takes far more resources. For example, the HP 50g OS runs on a Saturn emulator and is an updated version of the HP 48g OS. Even though the 50g is clocked at almost 70-90 MHz, it still only runs 7 times faster than the 48g, which is only 4 MHz.

A TI-82 emu for the 83+SE and older 84+SE models exist and it runs about twice slower than the original calculator, even if the original calc is 6 MHz and the emulator is 15. To run the 84+ emu at perfect speed on the CSE it would require the calc to be around 30-40 MHz.
