It's in OSX as a hidden part of Calculator.app
I think you have to move these into the PlugIns folder.

No no no. Pacific Tech has Graphing Calculator 1.4b2 for Mac OS X in their Free Stuff section. Along with the most recent OS 9 version.

Yeah, I was mistaken about that. However, the tip to add more modes to Calculator.app stands, as long as you're running 10.3.5 or below. @ Apple.

i read it on wired earlier
anyway, yeah. if i was an artist and all my hard work was included in every mac... i would be pretty happy because i am a part of history and people's lives.
no matter how much they paid me, it would have been worth it.
at any rate, why didn't he wait for the mac to come out... buy one and then program the software and release it FREE to help the kids?
or he could have: programmed it on windows and gave it out FREE because a percentage of people d have PCs too. that would have helped the kids too.
they made it sound like he's the a graphic calculator saint or something.

Yeah, I'd probably use that program if it wasn't so expensive. Even with the student discount it's still pretty steep for something I wouldn't use that often.

But your TI-89 can't make a 3D animated smiley face that sticks out its tongue when the value of n is altered!
