mine was just a pressure sensitive pad thing that i plugged into a tv. it stored BASIC programs on cassette tapes. |
sounds like an Atari 800. lol. my folks still have one of those somewhere.
and i think, capn, that yours was an actual cassette tape, where garbanzo had a cartridge type, the pre-packaged ones.
i somewhat remember the ti99, at least in name. i recall going around ann arbor, michigan to the few stores that sold these early computers and drooling over various early ataris and the timex sinclair. lol. and i recall when radio shack first came out with the 'trash 80's', the TRS 80 home computers. did my first code on one of those at the local community college in their new 'computer lab', where i used to go play on main frames and they had a few trash 80's along one wall. that was back in the early to mid 70's

If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!
