    The Casio Fx7000g is the first graphic scientific calculator in the world.

    Special features :
    A color graphic display using a 3 color technology that Casio promoted on some (very few actually) of their devices.

    Bringing color to the graphic calculators, in a move that resembles marketting more than actual features improvements, Casio however innovates with this surprising machines.
    If i mention marketting rather than improvement, that's because at the time the CFX-9900GC was released, Casio had a bit lost it's ability to invent and bring new (sometimes even crazy!) ideas on the market. Then the CFG-9900GC came out, just like fresh air on the innovation side.
    On the feature side, however, the machine is still a very common one and doesn't innovate that much.
    It is still a seducing device, with a design of it's own, large yet slim, and somehow military...
    What makes me think that the innovation was not *that* historical is that, as opposed to the first graphic calculator, also from Casio, this first *color* graphic calculator did not create a market, and the idea disappeared after just a few new models, always from Casio.
