Title: Great Features, Poor Craftsmanship
Review: I use to own the original TI-83 and it was great. Recently it finally busted and I figured I'll replace it with a TI-89. So I buy the TI-89 and noticed 4 things:1) Great features! So many potantials.2) Cheap plastic compared to some of the older models.3) LCD directly exposed; unlike the TI-83(original) which had a transparent plastic shield over the display.4) Display is skewed by roughly 1 degree clockwise...which is VERY annoying.I am very disappointed at Texas Instrument's poor quality control. For a product that costs so much, the last thing I expected was poor craftsmanship. Don't get we wrong; the features on the TI-89 are top notch! I would give a 5 star rating for features alone. But a skewed display is just insulting for [an expensive] calculator.Sorry but Texas Instruments just lost a long-time customer.Buyer's beware: always check the quality of the TI-89 you're getting.
