Re: Somewhat OT: Casio calculator reccomendation Message #2 Posted by Don Shepherd on 9 Nov 2011, 11:02 a.m., in response to message #1 by M. Joury
I think Katie knows about the SDK for these, I'm sure she will reply. I've used the fx-9860g Slim for a few years now. It is a compact speedy machine with the best backlight I've ever seen on a calculator. I also evaluated the Casio color Prizm for a month, and its graphics were out of this world. It also had a very good way to write programs (in Casio BASIC) on the PC and easily download them to the calc.
If I was going to do some serious work, I would choose the Prizm, although the few programs I wrote ran significantly slower on the Prizm than on the slim. Katie said that is probably due to the Prizm OS being larger and more complex than that of the slim.
