Recommendations Calculator
The fx-991ES PLUS is a brill calculator i can only recommend it. For SQA Advanced Highers it it fantastic to check if your integration/diff is right and for complex numbers. The calculator seems to have a half decent processor/ram so it does not seem to lag when typing in long equations, which my old Casio did. If you are planning to further your maths at university, i would save up and buy the Ti-84 plus.
What's New?
The number of available memories have increased from 7 to 9. (A, B, C, D, X, Y, M, and now E, F). Previously E and F were available only for the Hexadecimal mode.
You now have the ability to calculate using repeated numbers. For example, you can type the decimal form of 1/3 using 0.3 with the bar above the three. I believe that this is first line of calculators that has this ability.
* New number functions are: GCD, LCM, Integer Part, Fractional Part, Random Integers, Integer Division (÷R) that gives quotient and remainder, and Prime Factorization (up to three digit factors). To factor a number, enter it, press [ = ], then [SHIFT], [ º ' '' ].
* Products of function f(x): ∏ f(x).
* In Table Mode you can include two functions f(x) and g(x). This is turned on in SET UP.
* The [ALPHA] key acts as both as an variable key and a second shift key.
* The rref and ref functions are added to the Matrix Mode (but not eigenvalues).
* The fx-115ES PLUS has a curve design, and boasts a faster processor.
New Modes
* Inequality Solver of quadratic and cubic equations
* Verification mode, used for compare expressions (i.e. Does π/4 π/2? Does 1 = 9/9 = e^0?)
* Distribution mode: Normal Distribution (CDF, PDF, and Inverse (Yes!)), Binomial Distribution (CDF, PDF), and Poisson Distribution (CDF, PDF).
Final Thoughts
If the fx-115 ES was solid, then the fx-115ES PLUS is taking a great calculator and making it better. At about $18, you get a huge bang for the buck.

Many thanks the Seller krazy Deals for the best Item
The Solve feature can solve for more than just X. You can specify the variable as so:
equation, variable to solve for
If there is no second argument, then the variable to solve for defaults to X.
Example:
X - 2Y = 1, X solves for X
X - 2Y = 1, Y solves for Y
