I purchased the fx-9860gii-2 (OS 2.09) to get to know a typical modern member of the CASIO family. It is equipped with the custom SH-4AL(SH7305) without FPU made for CASIO. The device is supplied with two cables: SB-62 and USB mini type A.

I just bought an fx-CG50. It's Basic is very compatible with the 9860 and it also runs Micro Python. While the Basic is pretty fast, Python blows it away! The full color screen is easier on the eyes (IMHO) than the 9860. I still like my 9860 but the CG50 is my new toy. I keep discovering new things about it.
