Your mind doesn't have a touchpad.
....does it? :o

For instance, I downloaded ME pro for my 89 and it makes a lot of my work a breeze (weird shape in need of a centroid? done. :P). The 89 has cross products and similar engineering functions preloaded onto it. If the Nspire has those, or downloads to make it a viable engineering calculator, I'd definitely give it a try.

Whaddaya mean it won't? I'm an engineering student and I'm still using a Ti83. >_>
I'm just not wasting the damn money to upgrade, seriously. I'll solve those 3+ systems of equations and do rugna kattas and integrals/derivatives myself, thanks. *Cries in a corner*
(well, though actually I don't think it does Rugna Katta anyway, my group had to make a matlab function for that)
Nah but really, I'm a 3rd year now and I still don't see any need to use anything beyond an 83. An 89 supposedly helps with some things, but there's nothing you really can't do with an 83 and pencil and paper at hand! I don't really see the obsession with this new and fancy piece of work when something older works just fine. Waste of money. If a class really requires it I'll switch but I haven't seen that need thus far.

I've got a Casio Algebra FX 2.0, that I use for quick basic stuff.
For everything else, there is Louhi.

I didn't use my TI-83+ in college at all. My calculus courses wouldn't let us use any calculators, nor would physics.
