Got a CG100 and wanted to share my thoughts

I just got a Casio CG100 and wanted to share my experience since I see a lot of mixed opinions about it and the fx-991CW.

I originally started with the fx-991CW around two years ago as my main scientific calculator. I got used to its layout and how the menu system works. Later, I decided to get a graphing calculator because I'll need one soon, so I went with the CG50 since it was basically the main Casio option at the time.

Now that I'm actually using a graphing calculator more, I've noticed that switching between the fx-991CW and the CG50 isn't that smooth for me. The CG50 is based on the older 991EX-style layout, and it takes some time to get used to if you're already familiar with the CW system.

I then found out that Casio had released the CG100, and it feels much more consistent with the fx-991CW, so I decided to get one. I can understand why some people prefer the CG50 or don't like the CW/CG100 style as much, but for me the newer layout is more practical since I don't have to relearn everything.

Just wanted to share my experience and see what everyone else thinks about the two systems. :)

I still have the 2026-04 Preview Update (KB5083631) / 26200.8328 and the Secure Boot Allowed Signature Database (DB) Update pending. I’m nervous about installing KB5083631 because I’ve heard people say it wouldn’t install properly and some had to reinstall Windows or deal with other problems. Since I’d have to do both at once, is this actually likely to cause issues on a normal personal laptop, or is it usually fine?

Thanks in advance, and sorry if it's a stupid question.
