When I was in school, we had TI-83s graphing calculators. That, would've been the mid to late 90s.
That was amazing a ti 59 and printer my first computer I got, magnetic card memory, today there is even a android and PC emulator now with all the modules, TMS9900 as I remember. Cool system for all kinds of Calculations. A SLIDE RULE i used in school for My TECH school in Electronics, We had on our belts dangling down, from class to class. All Classic.
Thanks Fran. I have some of these drafting items. Now I know what they are for.
When I was in Coast Guard ET school in 1980, a TI-30 was $250 in Manhattan. Three of us went in on it and shared it through our basic electronics courses. I do not remember what happened to it.
That "rotary tool" is actually a power eraser for drafting, it takes different eraser material inserts same as a hand held driating eraser..and uses an ac induction motor. it was very expensive when new. I still have the spindle/collet out of one used as a manual one and some eraser inserts…actually I have a small box of drafting tools from back in the day….moved on to AutoCAD and HP plotters and then to inkjet plotters….I used to be a repair tech for such. P.s. My 1st programmable device was a Ti 57…still have the book "Making tracks into programming" and the pad of blank program sheets, sadly lost the calculator…but have a small collection of other calculators/sewing machines and various other vintage obscure electronics.
Te iubesc mult mult mai bine 😘😘💖🐼🙏
login nonsense ahahahahhahahahahahahah
I took a cartography class in college (around 1989), and used that Leroy lettering set. I HATED IT. But you can't argue with the robotic, uniform results. As a matter of fact, the old EC comic books from the early 50's used the Leroy system instead of pure free-hand lettering, giving them a unique look among their competition.
The Army used the TI59 in the 80s to calculate artillery gunnery data.
I've still got my excellent condition Texas Instruments Ti-52 calculator and plastic flip case from 1987. Like the vintage electronics of the Casio FX10. I've kept mine always in the case.
