The Casio name in itself is enough to make many people take notice. Casio have an excellent reputation for making good calculators, and I think it's entirely deserved. Their experience with school-level calcs means that their products tend to be robust and well-built, which is the case with the CFX-9850G. Everything is made of hard-wearing plastic, including the keys. At first, their slightly loose feel can be alarming, but in ... ...forward, to enter (and store) Casio programs on the PC and transfer them to the calc when ready, isn't a possibility.

Advantages: Packed with useful features Disadvantages: Are there any??
This Casio CFX-9850G Plus calculator is a great little machine. It is stacked with features that are incredibly useful to people such as maths students. Not only is this a cracking piece of kit, it's robust too. I've had mine for about four years now and its still working perfectly, despite being knocked about a fair bit because of its regular use. The calculator is quite easy to use once you've messed around on it for a bit; it is easy enough to ... ...graphical interface and the sort of 'cursor' that you move around to navigate the menus. If you are reasonably competent with technology, the controls should pose no problems at all.
