Interesting...  According to an article at Reuters, new data released by the research firm iSuppli showed that personal computers used just 49% of all DRAM chips manufactured in Q2 of 2012 (leaving of course 51% of all memory parts consumed by other devices, such as phones, tablets, and so on).

This is pretty significant news - this is apparently the first time this has happened since the 1980s.  And it certainly seems that trends like this are only going to continue...

Graphing calculators have come a LONG way.  The TI-Nspire CX CAS has a 3.2-inch full-color screen, and can translate equations into rotating 3-D graphs, with animations.

One of the truly amazing things is that lab cradle for the device enables it to receive and analyze a range of lab-sensor data—from CO2 levels and UV intensity to human heart and respiration rates.
