I was a young adult when the TI-99/4A hit the market. I worked in the digital communications industry and considered getting one, but I ended up waiting for something better and comparably priced. I put together a Ferguson Big Board II a few years later. Many of you might say the TI was "better", and you would be right about the CPU and the color graphics, but not about the software availability. CP/M was the best "business" OS of the day until MS-DOS eventually overtook it. It still makes me sad to think about what Bill Gates did to Gary Kildall.
