Is your calculator in the same
class you are?
Move up to the T1-66. The easy 512 step programmable.
You’re into higher math and your old
calculator helped get you there.
But now it’s time for something more.
The TI-66 from Texas Instruments. The
T1-66 offers full programming power and
flexibility so you can solve complex and
repetitive math problems quickly, easily
and with fewer keystrokes than you
thought possible. Its 512 merged pro-
gram steps and over 170 built-in
scientific, engineering and statistical
functions make for powerful program-
ming. And the sleek, streamlined design
makes for easy use.
Its Algebraic Operating System makes
it easy on your brain by allowing you to
key in problems as they are written, left
to right. And a 10-digit angled Liquid
Crystal Display not only makes it easy
on your eyes but provides alphanumeric
notation of your program steps so you
can make easy modifications as you
go along. There are large, readable keys
for your fingers, and an easy-to-follow
guidebook so you shouldn’t get confused.
And last, but certainly not least, at a
suggested retail of $69.95, there’s a price
that’s easy on your pocketbook.
All in all, if we made the TI-66 pro-
grammable calculator any easier to use,
it would deserve its own degree.
