i was wondering if anyone was kind enough to help me out a bit, with finding the manufacturer's warranty information. i was told that the TI-83 Plus, as well as the other calculators made by the Texas Instruments company have a one year warranty, but i just don't have a clue as to where i can read up a bit on it to see how they cover their products (ie product replacements under which conditions, etc).

if anyone can help with a link or anything on how they cover their calculators, more specifically the TI-83 Plus, I'd appreciate it greatly.

thank you :)

P.S. I also checked on their website, but apparently i couldn't find anything.

www.education.ti.com

that's the one i went to, but i was unsuccessful in finding anything.

thanks again, in advance. :)
