Some people think the most important desk accessory is the ballpoint pen. For others, it's the erasor. On this desk, it's the TI-83 Plus calculator.
There are lots of graphing calculators out there, and plenty of them have more functionality than the TI-83. Few have managed to strike the balance between functionality, ease of use and low cost that the TI-83 has managed.
It's powered by the decades-old Z80 processor, which means there's plenty of "aftermarket" software if you're so inclined. I has a serial port that allows you up upload and download programs from your computer; you can also upgrade the calculator's internal firmware with this.
The list of functions in the calculator is impressive. It will handle most statistics, algebra, geometry, trig and calculus tasks with ease. The screen isn't the highest resolution, but the graphing feature in most calculators isn't intended for exacting work; it's simply meant to give you a quick representation of the data.
Many schools require the TI-83, for good reason. It really is one of the best calculators for the money.
