I have loved this calculator for about 2 years then it finally needed some
batteries....Since then I have had nothing but problems. Every now and then
when I turn it on it will say memory lost...sometimes it is sometimes it isn't.
It sure is a hassle because it takes a long time to enter a bunch of equations
only to have the machine crash. Sometimes the battery light will just come on
and stay on until I hit the shift key.

I have talked to other people with the older 28s' and they seemed to agree that
something is screwed up with the machines...I mean I have bought 3 sets of
batteries in the last 6 months, they all can't be bad so soon.

Well...what can I do? any suggestions?
