TI-99 fans subthread here! Pleasantly surprised to see my favorite here and with several upvotes. It always gets overlooked in comparison to the Commodores, Apples, Ataris, and the various UK favorites. but the TI-99 was where I typed in plenty of BASIC programs from library magazines and books... almost all of which failed horribly, being written for machines other than TI's odd BASIC dialect. But once I figured out CALL COLOR, the screen would be a beautiful mess of colored characters anytime you saw me at the machine.
