• The TI-Nspire CAS comes with the software that you can transfer work from the calculator to the computer.

• Word of caution: The CAS calculators are not allowed for ACT college entrance exams. It is almost like cheating. The CAS calculators have a Computer Algebra System (CAS), which means they can produce symbolic results. These calculators can manipulate algebraic expressions, performing operations such as factor, expand, and simplify

• From my experience, the CAS version provides exact answers (example: square root of 2 is displayed as the square root of 2) as well as demical answers, while the non-CAS version only provides demical answers for such problems. Go with the CAS version. It'll make your life easier.
