Calculator
Hi,
The standard calculator for Mac is the Casio fx-991 (or something like that) right? Can someone show me a picture of it because when I google it there are so many models under the same name I'm not sure which one it is. Any help would be appreciated and thanks for reading!

Every school supply store pretty much has barrels full of this calculator. It will be on display in the open, especially at Titles at MAC.

You can also get them DIRT CHEAP Sept 17th at the Lost and Found garage sale/ Bike Auction that we hold every year.
My room mate loses them all the time and I think last year she bought two new ones? Our couch eats things.

Which version; ES or MS or it doesn't matter at all as long as it's Casio fx-991?

The MS is the one that virtually everyone has. I'm not sure I've ever even seen an ES in stores.

yeah I was thinking the same question. I like the ES version better, so would that be allowed?

Yup. As long as it starts with fx-991, you're good to go. But you will probably have a MUCH easier time finding the MS version, which also means that the majority of people will have that version - so if you have trouble using it, or want to use some of the shortcuts (standard deviation/quadratic formula), you'll have a much easier time finding the help you need.

you can get the fx-991ES at staples for $29.81 if anyone is interested. the fx-991MS is at staples as well for $23.91. Is that expensive or similar to what Titles will sell it for?
