Hey, all!

As some of you may know, Casio released a new version of the FX-991ES a while ago, the FX-991ES PLUS (description here). From what I can see, it looks somewhat different, and as far as new features are concerned, it can now display fractions when it solves equations, it has a more complete random integer generator, 2 more variables for memory calculations (so 7 in the old one to 9 in the new one), and a new "Advanced NATURAL-V.P.A.M" display, which apparently makes the input go all the way down to cover more of the screen.

Has anyone tried this calculator? Is it all that better to shell out the 30 or so euros it costs?

Thanks in advance.

Is it worth it - is really something personal. Is it worth it, to you?

I haven't tried it but it looks great. For now I'm happy with my 991ES.

I'm impressed though by the featured "plastic keys". Like they haven't had those on their calculators for over 40 years now...

All kidding aside, it's a little gem so if you like it, do get it.
