+mizapf Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 You have just an 8-bit soul? You should have used a TI-99/4A.

+mizapf Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 I know it's a bit overdone, and I'm using that in a more humorous way ... But the background is that back in time, when TI still sold the 99/4A, people kept claiming it's not a "real" 16 bit system, mainly those who played on their 6502/6510 computers. Admittedly, from an outside view, particularly from the visible capabilities, the TI-99/4A resembles the 8-bit systems much stronger than the later 16/32-bit systems, so it is understandable that it was put in this 8-bit category. From a technical viewpoint, it's outright wrong. The TMS9900 is a pure 16 bit platform. Let's be proud about that, just a little bit. 2 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/240842-only-for-8-bit-souls/#findComment-3284674 Share on other sites More sharing options...
