Retrospect Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 You don't see these come up too often, the pre-cursor to the 99/4A from 1979, sold initially only with the 13" Zenith monitor. http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5574883395&toolid=10001&campid=5336500554&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fitm%2FTI-99-4-No-A-Not-TI99-4A-Original-TEXAS-INSTRUMENTS-Home-Computer-VINTAGE-2-%2F221191497284%3F_trksid%3Dp5197.m1992%26_trkparms%3Daid%253D111000%2526algo%253DREC.CURRENT%2526ao%253D1%2526asc%253D14%2526meid%253D6040254745330438221%2526pid%253D100015%2526prg%253D1006%2526rk%253D1%2526sd%253D221191497284%2526 The one below works but has a video chip problem.

Tursi Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) Ah, scratch my original post, it's $78 shipping to the UK (still seems high to me though.) $18 domestic makes a lot more sense. Edited March 6, 2013 by Tursi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrospect Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 Ah, scratch my original post, it's $78 shipping to the UK (still seems high to me though.) $18 domestic makes a lot more sense. I really want one, but the wife tells me "no more crap" which unfortunately means computers. Something just hit me, we all know the TI99/4 will not play Parsec or any other game involving Bitmap mode ..... thinking about it, can an F18A be fitted to one of these machines, because surely that would allow for Parsec?

Should work in theory! I just double-checked that the 99/4 VDP is still socketed, and it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should get one and let us know! You're wife would surely understand that other people are dependent on your answer. hahaha -Dano 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
