Where are the games on this thing?

calculator
Grant was in my office the other day and found my trusty calculator (I know - I'm so old-fashioned!). He pushed all the buttons and flipped the switches for a few minutes and then finally asked me, "Where are the games on this thing?"

So where are the games? Sun wants to find them. The ones that you're writing with Darkstar.

Project Darkstar is running a contest now and they're offering some great prizes. The grand prize is a pass to the 2009 Game Developer Conference (GDC), the chance to show off your stuff at GDC, and cash for your travel. And you get featured on the Project Darkstar site. Entries can be submitted between November 17, 2008 and January 19, 2009. Details are here.

Extra points if you can write something that runs on my calculator. :)

Canon makes calculators too? The note book by the side is equally appealing! :) Old fashion? yes. but never out of fashion! :)

Maddy it's so true, notebooks will never go out of style. And lucky for me, I'd be useless without mine!

Yeah I was surprised by that Canon logo too. But I stayed in a building in Japan with a Toshiba elevator - who knew!
