I really enjoyed learning programming on the TI-57 but I soon could not fit the programs I wanted to run in it’s limited 50 program steps. I saw an ad for the ‘step-up’ TI-58. Now here was a machine with some power!
Here’s the fantastic instruction manual that came with the TI-58.
Along with the TI-58 you got a ROM module that fit’s into a compartment in the back of the unit. Free with the TI-58 is the Master Library Module with 25 built-in useful programs. Other modules were available for different fields of interest such as real estate, business, math, etc., for $35. each. A booklet describing the programs on the ROM chip and 25 reference cards accompanied each ROM. The TI-58 itself could be programmed with up to 480 program steps and up to 60 memories.
It also would work on the companion PC100A printer cradle attachment as did the TI-59 and a few other models.
