Recently on a math teacher forum someone posted an interesting link for teachers: www.donorschoose.org
On this site teachers bid for donations to specific projects... for example, since many of the investigations written assuming the use of the ti-83/84 graphing calculator. But what if you don't have a classroom set? At donorschoose.org it is completely reasonable to finance 8 calcualtors with contrabutions.
True this is not a classroom set, but I could be one calculator for a group of four (assuming a class of less than 32)... then next year you could get 8 more and so on... in four years you could have a classroom set.
Not an ideal solution, but defiantly plausible.
