I haven't opened one up yet, but apparently, they have limited scavenging value

because its z80 CPU is packaged in a TI-specific chip. Due to its sturdy design,

and its ample RAM and flash, we could imagine it becoming a valuable piece of

equipment if found intact.

As it is now, with its tiny screen and cumbersome keyboard, Collapse OS is
|
||||
not really usable on the TI-84+. One could imagine a scenario where one has a
|
||||
terminal and uses the TI-84+ through the link for its large amount of flash and
|
||||
RAM. But using it standalone? Nah, not even post-collapse.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore, this recipe is more of a "look, I run!" demo.

### Background notes
|
||||
|
||||
Getting software to run on it is a bit tricky because it needs to be signed
|
||||
with TI-issued private keys. Those keys have long been found and are included
|
||||
in `keys/`. With the help of the
|
||||
[mktiupgrade](https://github.com/KnightOS/mktiupgrade), an upgrade file can be
|
||||
prepared and then sent through the USB port with the help of
|
||||
[tilp](http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tilp/).
|
||||
|
||||
That, however, requires a modern computing environment. As of now, there is no
|
||||
way of installing Collapse OS on a TI-8X+ calculator from another Collapse OS
|
||||
system.
|
||||
|
||||
Because it is not on the roadmap to implement complex cryptography in Collapse
|
||||
OS, the plan is to build a series of pre-signed bootloader images. The
|
||||
bootloader would then receive data through either the Link jack or the USB port
|
||||
and write that to flash (I haven't verified that yet, but I hope that data
|
||||
written to flash this way isn't verified cryptographically by the calculator).
|
||||
|
||||
As modern computing fades away, those pre-signed binaries would become opaque,
|
||||
but at least, would allow bootstrapping from post-modern computers.
