When I was a kid my folks bought the TI 99/4A for some ridiculous reason. It’s interesting to look back at the weird hardware that never made it, like the cartridges that thing used instead of 5¼" floppies that were also out at the time. Maybe it reminded them of inserting 8 tracks.
Are you like 80?
No, 47. Believe it or not, the first PCs came out when I was a young whippersnapper.
IBM 486 was my first PC as a kid. Throw in those floppys and game on DOS!
Mine was an Apple ][+.
(And yes, that’s how you write it properly. I’m a pedant.)
I would have it no other way. I am the same. 😂

I think the 99/4A also had a cassette tape drive you could buy. I don’t think they ever made a floppy drive for it though.
I have 6.22 and Win3.11 running in a VM for fun.
Fuck yea man, Dr Sbaitso was the one for me. I loved that shit. It still fucks with people when I bust that out on Dosbox.

Oh OK cause the article you sent mentioned ELIZA being developed between 1964-67 so I had to ask.
