Star EFF Warns TI Not to Pursue Legal Threats Against Hobbyists

Law and Order So, we have Apple who is paranoid about people installing legally purchased copies of its operating system on non-Apple labelled machines. Just when you thought it couldn't get any more ridiculous than that, we have a hardware company trying to prevent people from installing operating systems on its hardware. Wait, what?

...frankly the golden age of TI hacking and coding is long over.

Pretty much yeah... I recall hacking apps for the Prosit kernel on Ti 68k, that was fun.

what incentive does he have to even discover that games and apps can be run on his low-resolution monochromatic calculator, much less dive in and learn Z80 assembly (or even TI BASIC)

Well actually there are still some rare people making demos on Ti calcs...
hopefully we'll get some at the Alchimie 2k9!
