Phil,

Nearly all my students have the TI-82 as it is required for pre-calc math
classes.  The students purchase them but the school does have a rental
program.  My students use them all the time and we will likely expand this
usage next year if I bring some CBL activities into the classroom.

A few of the students have HP graphing calculators but the TI-82 is the
most popular.
