MOSAIC.WAV interview from DNS
There is a lot of overlap between Momoi fans and MOSAIC.WAV fans including myself as I have posted in the past, and from other commenters here. So everybody who likes MOSAIC.WAV should read this fantastic English interview by DENPA NO SEKAI.
It's so impressive I had to make a post just to link to it. Plus Koike is referred to as "legendary." Yep, that's the kind of rep you can get for being one half of UNDER17 8)
Also, willpower to study steadily deceasing since two weeks ago...relearning all the fast habits I had with my trusty TI-89 all these years and re-ingraining them to hp 12c for financial math has been great fun.

I use a Voyage 200 for financial math, the programmable capabilities are fantastic. I think they're not allowed on US campuses though, because of the QWERTY keyboard. It's not a problem in Canada.
Thanks for the link. Being a guitar player myself, Koike has become nothing short of a role model.

Voyage looks like a beast - that would get taken away for being a 'laptop' on any campus here. CFA exams also only allow two models: hp 12c and TI BAII though, possibly to to reduce the potential whining by exam takers of the "MY CALCULATOR ROUNDED DIFFERENTLY" variety.
I don't really have a problem with it I guess since I should learn how to use a specialized financial calculator anyway (plus it looks so nerdy to whip out a thick TI-89 at work), but I coasted through high school calculus and nearly all of college on it so leaving it behind is so sad :(
