TI-82 Calculator Museum
Downtown Aaron City is home to a very unique museum dedicated to the wonderful piece of mathematical history, the Texas Instruments, or TI-82 Calculator.
In addition to several working models, the TI-82 Museum also holds a collection of original programming for the calculator created in the last millennium, from a time span ranging from 1996 to 2000. These programs can be examined and copied at no charge.
