I was using google as a verb, referring to the act of using Google's
search engine to find out more information about the Orion TI-84, not
as an adjective describing the Orion as being made by Google... In
retrospect, I think this same confusion came up the other day when I
googled Cygwin, PuTTY, and PowerShell to find out when they were first
released and got a reply that made it sound like Google had made a
similarly named Utility to Microsoft's offering.
I know the Orbit 20 is a Braille display(and hope the 20 is the cell
count and not an arbitrary model number), but since I have no clue
what the Graffiti is and googling it will probably just return results
about urban murals, I'll ask directly: What's Graffiti? I'm guessing
from context it's some kind of assistive technology that had a
depressingly limited release for one reason or another.

will braille the results if you have an Orbit Reader 20. It also connects
to the graphiti if you are lucky enough to have one. I also use it to
emboss graphs. Why did youput google in front of it? APH and Orbit made
it

*Googles Orion TI-84... Discovers it's exactly what it sounds like given the
context...* I want one... Never used a TI-84 back when I could see, and
never got as much enjoyment out of the TI-89 Titanium, but I loved playing
around with the TI-83 Plus back in high school...
admittedly, I'm not sure how the graphing aspect would interact with speech,
but still, a high end calculator that can talk and has a proper calculator
keypad instead of having to work with calculator programs using a keyboard
designed for textual input, not mathematical input sounds amazing.
And yeah, my three wishes if I ever found a benevolent genie's lamp would
probably be render all sentient lifeforms omnilingual, heal all sentient
lifeforms of all illness, injury, and disability, and grant all sentient
lifeforms the ability to take on their personal, idealized form, but
recovering all lost source code and publishing it online in a way that would
be impossible to remove all copies is a strong contender for my fourth
wish... That an a universal decompiler, assuming I can't convince the genie
that omnilingual includes machine code and all programming languages.
