The
colourful TI-1270 was introduced late in the growing TI-1200
family. Is it a basic calculator or a scientific calculator ? Compare it with the SR-11,
introduced only 2 years earlier as a huge scientific calculator.
Within the Datamath Museum the decision was made, we'll keep it in the Basic Album. If your read more about the calculator chip inside the calculator you'll notice the similarity to the TI-1200.
A similar calculator was sold as Citation M4988 from the distribution company Western Auto.
