I have narrowed it down to the CASIO FX 82 AU or the CASIO FX 100 AU because it seems like what most schools use. Just wondering what the best between them are? The 82 is $10 cheaper than the 100 but the 82 seems better because of the natural display. What does the 100 have over the 82?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

get the casio fx82...they both do the same thing and like you said its $10 cheaper, so why fork out a little bit more when the cheaper one does the exact same job as the fx 100

fx82!!

So much easier to use than the 100 series..

I cant remember which exactly, but my friends which had the 100 series couldnt do certain functions on the spot.. like they had to waste time to save, then recall, then do this n that..
