Notes:	The one on display here is quite worn out and scratched by its previous owner but still works fine, if you know which keys do what. The calculator is a basic scientific calculator for school use. It has a slide on hard cover for protection (which didn't help this particular specimen). Its type designation is simply TI-30 but at the bottom right it says "SCIENTIFIC". Hence my type designation in this musem to be able to distinguish it from the TI-30 itself.
Series:	The TI-30 series started with the TI-30, an ordinary scientific LED calculator. But Texas Instruments kept extending this line, turning it not into just a model number but a whole calculator series. Trying to make it the non-programmable scientific calculator for school use. So far I’ve found mention of the following types (probably incomplete): TI-30 TI-30 LCD TI-30 II TI-30 III TI-30 SLR TI-30 D TI-30 SCIENTIFIC (this one) TI-30 SLR TI-30 SLR+ TI-30 STAT TI-30 Challenger (Solar) TI-30 GALAXY TI-30 GALAXY SLR TI-30 SOLAR TI-30 S TI-30X TI-30X Pro TI-30Xa TI-30Xa/SE TI-30X Solar TI-30Xa Solar TI-30XB TI-30XS TI-30XII TI-30XIIB TI-30XIIS TI-30 ECO RS TI-30 SR 50
