One of the earliest hacks for ti-calcs, pretty neat too!

That's Ticalc.org for you...

By the way, did you know that they have actually put up some files? This could make head lines in the paper!

Whew! I was actually getting worried about the future of ticalc or a second there.

I was thinking of overclocking at one time. What stopped me was those stories about the LCD routines (namely CrGRBCopy for TI-82 Crash v1.6) not working properly on fast hardware. I guess there's always the turbo switch option.
My diet consists of nails, code-stealers, and HP fans.

Yeah, I was thinking of having four settings: slow (to conserve batteries), normal, fast, and extreme.

Yeah you would have to modify any fastcopy routines to increase the delay between LCD writes (since the instructions are executed faster).
