But a tempting opportunity for some. can we all agree to not bid on this so I can get one? thanks 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the winner of the Wafertape got a possible bargain, as quite a few of those tapes look to have programs on them. If we are lucky it will have gone to someone in the community who can try and read them for preservation (and no, I didn't win the Wafertape). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixelpedant Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Indeed, would be nice if those had something to share, and it were shared. That having said, even if they were TI's own wafertape programs, most of their named wafertape software titles are pretty dry stuff of course: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+acadiel Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 I know someone in possession of those, but since they’re technically still attached to TI, they can’t distribute them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbdigriz Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 (edited) Ref: Greg's post about the TIPC with the nutso price on Ebay. I am informed that the price is probably "because keyboard". Apparently the TIPC kbd is one the keebsters lust after. Seller's other items seem reasonably priced. PPC in Denver with even more software and a printer, reasonable starting bid. Local pickup only, looks like. https://www.ebay.com/itm/314520503613 Edited April 16, 2023 by jbdigriz add reference to OP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am honestly torn on this. Having three SX-64s in my possession, one which works fully and the other two questionable but prime targets for some mods (LCD screen, &c,) putting a 99/4A in one of them has not been on my list. Interesting project. Could I complete it? Yes. Could I afford it? I could, but not sure I am willing to put a half-large into such a beast right now. That little 5" monitor in the SX-64s is quite impressive. It is surprisingly sharp, and I was able to use Novaterm's 80-column mode on it (admittedly with younger eyes.) My projects right now include reviving a B500 system with 8050 floppy drives, and coming up with a way to capture a 4A's screen to print SuperSketch masterpieces, both for VCF. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duewester Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Oops I did it again. Peeked in on ebay at a 99/4a with a speech synth. Made offer (mostly for the synth) I figured was low. Dang it, they accepted. Well, now 5 99/4a's and running out of room for them. 2 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon you will be like me, with at least 50 of them squirreled about the house--but that is nothing compared to the doomsday prepper collection amassed by my good friend @Schmitzi. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have two ... one of them is the unmodified console I bought in 1983 ... Perhaps I could use a third one ... perhaps when @Schmitzi runs out of space... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
