- aidenn0 9y ago... I'm not sure that's possible because the 89 was created specifically in response to the college board (and those that followed their lead) banning QWERTY keyboarded calculators.
- acjohnson55 9y agoMy hunch is that QWERTY was a shorthand for "too powerful". I'm pretty sure my math teachers were unaware just how sophisticated the 89's CAS capabilities were. Although I do see that the TI-89 is still allowed [1] on the SAT.
