TI-1000_1.jpg (62192 Byte)The main difference between the two TI-1000's is the internal construction. The earlier model uses a layout like the TI-30, the later model looks inside like a TI-50. The picture shows on the left a TI-1000 manufactured in 1977, the right model was assembled two years later.

Please compare yourself with the TI-1000 (gold).

The technology of the early TI-1000 was choosen for the Little Professor (1978), too.
