I had a 99/4a and thought it was great. A couple of years ago I dug it out

Did anybody out there have a Texas Instruments Home Computer (99/4)? I
wrote the Technical Reference manual for that product back in 1979.

I have an Osborne 1 blocking part of the stairway to my shop. All the
rest of my ancient hardware went to the dump long ago. The Osborne
