The Galaxy 9
is almost identical to the Galaxy
9x introduced one year earlier. The only difference is one key, we know
similiar sibblings with the German Galaxy Junior
and the French Galaxy 10.
The first design of the Galaxy 9 got slightly changed keys during the lifetime of the calculator. The pictured Galaxy 9 was manufactured in the year 1995 and still available in 2002 at an airport shop in Lisboa (Portugal).
Dismantling
the Galaxy 9 reveals a small surprise, the calculator is 100% identical with the Galaxy 9x.
The spirit
of this calculator was repeated with the TI-15
introduced in the year 1999.
