Don't have any pictures but I have quite a few calculators...

In order of Preference:
1) Ti-89 Titanium <- Can literally do anything I need it too and more
2) TI-83 Plus
3) Ti-36X Pro <- My most used calculator as we had to use FE approved calculators in most of my classes and this was the most powerful one that was approved.
4) Ti-30XIIS
5) Ti-30XS
6) HP 39gs <- Never used as it can actually communicate with other 39gs's so you can actually cheat if someone else had one near you(which is convenient if no one knows lol)

The tools of the engineering student, the Casio fx-991MS and the fx-991EX (Classwiz).

I've been thinking of doing a post on all my mechanical pencils and pens sometime as the collection has grown quite a bit.

Calculators are faster w/ Carbon fiber..  That's an Engineering FACT..

I have the older version of the MS..

Eh, I actually really like the look of the FX-991 EX. Nice colors and the texture is pleasant. Incredible calculator, though the name 'Classwiz' is pretty tacky. I still use both interchangeably though as some things are a bit quicker to access on the FX-991 MS, such as the engineering units (milli, micro, nano, etc).

Casio is the way to go for dealing with complex numbers, in my opinion.

If it had higher rez, wouldn't hesitate, but it's still essentially the classic 84.
