Any good graphic calculators to get?

So my budget is around £50. Do all graphic calculators do pretty much the same thing? I am thinking of getting the fx-9750GII, any better suggestions? :bigsmile:

That's a really good calculator and it has a more user friendly interface than the TI ones.
I went through school and uni with one of these. Use it today still, don't really need anything more.

Honestly, if you're going to be doing graphs and stuff, then you should just use a computer. Macs come with a graphing and equation mapping software built-in anyway.

I use a TI-nspire CX, and it's... decent, I suppose. It does the job. It was bloody pricey though, and school standard meant we all had to fork out the money.
