Real-Time Clock
The clock is correctly emulated in the TI-84 Plus mode of the TI-Nspire. Although the TI-Nspire OS doesn't display any clock as the TI-89 Titanium and the TI-84 Plus do, the TI-Nspire keeps track of time when the TI-84 Plus keypad is replaced by the TI-Nspire keypad, and then put back. We can be quite sure there is an RTC inside. It is also interesting to mention the XML tags dfmt (date format) and tfmt (time format) set to 1 in the factory settings (phoenix/syst/locales/en/settings/factory.zip/settings.xml of the compressed file system) in the OS file of both the TI-Nspire and the TI-Nspire CAS. These two parameters don't appear in the system settings dialog of the TI-Nspire OS, as it is the case for the tags curr and unit of settings.xml.
