Investigate Texas Instruments for 10 years of price-fixing related to the $100 Ti-83 calculator.

Created by M.S. on March 07, 2014

The Ti-83 plus calculator has become a required device for students across the country and the world. Despite the technology and materials of the Ti-83 plus calculator not changing in some 10 years, Texas Instruments has used their monopoly of the educational calculator industry to fix the price of their product at an unreasonably high cost for 10 years.

Computing technology has advanced rapidly over the last 10 years, yet the price of a Ti-83 plus calculator has inexplicably remained at around $100.

We implore the administration to investigate if there is any wrongdoing on the part of Texas Instruments.
