As the title says: Do you want an ABCDE keyboard on the calc (somewhere, likely bottom), or just a regular Alpha lock?
Consider how your daily usage may be affected, selling point, familiarity, and rules and regulations for tests.
Happy voting!
Personally, I'd rather have to press alpha once or twice, or plug in an external keyboard, then have to deal with a very cluttered keyboard with A-Z (or worse yet, QWERTY), or alternatively, the letter keys and needing to navigate, dozens of menus to type out math functions.
No Keyboard! The calc would be really bulky with a full size keyboard, and a mini keyboard just isn't right. Texting is really slow. Its like 1st grade all over again. Nobody knows how to type.

That's not true, over the years I learned to type at a pretty respectable speed on my TI calculators, although I've since lapsed in the years since I programmed TI-BASIC for hours a day.
That's all folks!

Thanks to everyone who voted!
