I don't want a lover, I just need a friend.
I used a TI-99/4A thay had at school. Classic machine. As famous as any other 8-bit micro from the time.
That Wolf excerp looks like a must see. |

The TI99/4a's cpu, the TMS 9900 was a 16 bit cpu. Fully expanded it was a very capable home computer. I used mine regularly up to when I got my first Amiga in 1992. Last edited by BCP on 03-Feb-2017 at 01:34 PM.

The TI99/4A was the computer that led me to computing, so to the Amiga _________________ Philippe 'Elwood' Ferrucci Sam460 1.10 Ghz AmigaOS 4 betatester Amiga Translator Organisation |

My best friend had a TI-99/4a, I used to love playing Tunnels of Doom on it. _________________ Pegasos2 G3 running AOS 4.1 and MorphOS 2.0 Amikit user, tinkering with Icaros VM (AROS) EFIKA owner Amiga 1200 |
