there goes my dream of a 3.2GHz wi-fi for my calc...

does the Global CalcNet work only for a special calc server?

Or is there a webpage converter so I could go on Wikipedia?
Wow this went far. This should be renamed "Gin’s calculator question topic and veteran discussion on answering!”
And he’s still at it! I read a lot of that.
Gin, just type in the Wikipedia URL u need to go to and you’re set.
I remember the 8 level greyscale discussion I started that ultimately got me nowhere until now when I can understand all the told me xD
right.

Except that there can't be 8 level greyscale or the CPU would be overloaded.
Um, what?

I'm pretty sure people have made 8-level grayscale programs for the TI-83+/84+ series.

I wrote a demo graphics program for the TI-86 (which also has a 6MHz Z80 CPU) that used between 1 plane and 6 planes (up to 64-level grayscale), and it certainly didn't "overload" the CPU. Anything above 8 levels was flickery but that was due to the low interrupt rate (~180Hz) and relatively long grayscale display cycle (63 in the case of 64 levels).
Here's one for the 83 Plus:

It's not perfect 8-level, but it's pretty dang close.
Here's a 16-level picture viewer for the 84+/SE.

I tried that, and it just ended up looking like 4 shades dithered together to me. I wasn't impressed.
