Hell YES!!! That is it exactly. Old computers are great. The TI-99/4a's
very common(I have three, all of which were $3 or less), but not much like
the TI-8x series. Their BASIC is really crappy, (unless you shell out $100
for extended BASIC), and they used a TMS-9900 3.3 Mhz CPU (My page has more
details on old computers).  However, I wouldn't know about the TI-95, as I
have never heard of it. Just wanted to say "KEEP THE CLASSICS ALIVE!"
