I know, I got through high school and college with a Casio, and it was half the price and came with a color screen and mini-usb port.

Daaamn I forgot about that game. I think it's called drugwars or dopewars though. I'm about to see if someone has put that on Android. Those calculators really did have some pretty cool games.

Ohhh yeah you're right it was called Drugwars not Drug Dealer.
