The TI 99/4 was a better machine but TI kept it “closed” so there was almost no third party development of software.

Huge mistake on their part.

I had one of those. After I got rid of my Sinclair 16k unit. It was pretty quirky. Sometimes the games would load, sometimes they wouldn’t.

I loved the TI...some interesting capabilities, and some great games.

Mine, too. For what it did it was nice. The problem was it didn't do much.

And, I had no business putting that kind of money into it.

Now, the C64 and the Amiga, those were great little machines.
