Title: Ordered a TI 99/4a

Just ordered this ti 99/4a  http://www.ebay.com/itm/121917220713?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT (http://www.ebay.com/itm/121917220713?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT)

Since dad wouldn't buy me an Atari 2600 I asked for a computer for "school". Love this machine, spending long nights typing code from magazines, trying to make my versions of arcade games.

BTW some o the best versions of arcade games came from ATARISOFT. Donkey Kong, Pac-Man. TI invaders was problably the best version of Space invaders.

Now lets see if this purchase works out of the box, or what is more likely a project.
