Yes that was me.

After I play around with this Casio FC-100 and find out that there were an
upgraded version model FC-200 with Programmable features now I want this
one too.

Really? The only FC-200 I could find is the FC-200V which is a non-programmable financial calculator, not a scientific programmable. Where did you see the FC-200?

The FC-200V is nothing special. The older FC-200, which is part of the same family as the FC-100 and FX-4000P, is a great financial calculator. It's lacking bonds and depreciation, but I've never needed those, and it probably wouldn't be hard to program those functions.

There's also the somewhat obscure FC-1000. It's a slim, folding, programmable, graphing, financial calculator. As long as you don't mind the membrane keyboard, it's really excellent.
