Product Description
Texas Instruments (TI-GRAPH/LINK6) TI-GraphLink Cable for PC or Macintosh enables communication betwTexas Instruments Graph-Link Serial Cable for Windows and Mac Review
The TI Graph Link cable connects any TI graphing calculator (TI-73, TI-82, TI-83, TI-83 Plus, TI-85, TI-86, TI-89, TI-92, TI-92 Plus) to a PC or Mac so that you can transfer files back and forth between the two. This is a very handy thing to have. It is extremely useful for calculator backups (a good thing to do every once in a while in case your TI crashes), and you can download a bunch of stuff off the Net to put on your calculator. A good place to get TI programs is ... You can buy the cable by itself, or you can buy it with the Graph Link software. I imagine that the cable Amazon is selling comes with software. However, if it is just the cable, you can download the software from TI's home page at ... The software for different calculators (I have linked to the TI-83, the TI-85, and the TI-86) is more or less the same; the confusing thing is that every calculator has a different procedure for linking. With some (such as the 86), you must be at the home screen; with others (such as the 85), you must be in receive (or send) mode.One warning, however: This cable works with both Windows and Mac. If you're a Windows user, though, DO NOT buy this cable; ($) is way too much. Buy the Windows-only cable (Amazon also sells this), because it's much cheaper. If you're a Mac user, I don't think you have a choice. You must buy this one (or buy a PC, but that would be a bit overboard).All in all, I would highly recommend buying a Graph Link. Make sure you have an available serial port (at least for the Windows cable), plug the cable in and go.
