If you use Windows, you can "emulate" a TI-83 calculator on your computer.

Here are some steps to get you started...

  1. Make sure you have a copy of WinZip... you can download an evaluation version from http://www.winzip.com
  2. Download the following file to your desktop by clicking on this link.
  3. Use WinZip to unzip (extract) the file to your desktop -- this will create a folder called "vti Folder"
  4. Inside of this folder, there is a program titled "Vti" or "Vti.exe" -- double click it to start the program...
  5. Click "Next"
  6. Choose the "TI-83 Plus version 1.2" from the list and click "Next"
  7. Click "Finish"
  8. A calculator will appear on your desktop.
  9. You may need to right-click on the calculator to exit the program.
  10. Have fun!
