I love the size of the screen on the calculator!! This calculator is perfect for derivatives, implicit functions, limits, etc. In other words this is the best for advance math courses such as CALCULUS! You have to get use to including the closed parentheses on every equations you use parentheses. It is neat you can program the answers to result the "exact answer, APPROXIMATE, or AUTO"! For example when calculating the square root of (8), the answer results in 2 * sqrt(2) for exact answer or 2.82843 for an approximate answer; which is the normal result on most other calculators such as TI-83. The clarity of the screen is great. It is neat that the fractions appear like the way you write on paper, expecially when you store your eqation into y= for graphing!!! Another thing you can do that is very neat is use split screen mode where you can view one thing and another thing side-by-side or top-bottom. For example, you can choose to view the home screen on the left side and view the graph on the other half of the screen.
The disadvantage are that it is difficult to use the voyage 200 without using both hands. Also compared to the calculators below TI-89 (TI-83,84,86); the TI 89, 92, and voyage lose the button having (x^2) and just has the (^) key. This key was very useful, but on the TI 89, 92, and voyage, you have press the carrot key for every power degree. For example for x^2 you press the letter x then press ^ lastly 2. Its not a big deal, but the button was very useful. The feature could have been included in the math catagory on the calculator, but for some reason its not. All together, this calculator is the ultimate calculator!
