  1. Fritz442: I just downloaded the editor and had the same reaction as CyberTaco. Wow - simply amazing. I can't believe how much depth the editor has while making it so incredibly easy to make our very own Tunnels of Doom games. I'm looking forward to diving in and making a personalized game that me and my son can play together. Thanks so much for creating this!
  2. Hi Keith99er, I came across this TI-99/4A Cartridge List in Excel format with almost 250 titles that includes a column with the release date (year). It looks like this person created it for his personal inventory tracking. I haven't verified how accurate or extensive it is, but it's been pretty useful tool for me as I begin to rebuild my 99/4A system and collection. http://www.cantstopclicking.com/ti994a/index.html Cartridge List (Excel): http://www.cantstopclicking.com/ti994a/index_files/Dano%27s%20Cartridge%20List%20-%20Blank%20%28v2.1%29.xls Hope this is helpful! -David
  3. I'm definitely interested in a complete cartridge if one's available. I sent you a separate PM - let me know you have one to to spare that I can purchase. Thanks!
  4. Planning out the next steps in rebuilding my TI-99/4A system... for the 4th time in my life!

  5. This is similar to the route I went just this past week to connect the TI-99/4A I bought off Craigslist. I bought a used Dell monitor at Goodwill for $29 that has a composite video input as well as VGA and DVI inputs. The monitor is about 7 years old but has great picture quality. I made my own composite cable yesterday. The monitor doesn't have built-in speakers so I just have the audio (red and white) outputs connected to some powered speakers (Parsec sounds great through these speakers). Later, I plan to purchase and install the F18A - and I'll be able to use the same monitor!
  6. Thanks for the great question and detailed reply. This provides a lot of insight into some of the unrealized potential of TI-99/4A. If only TI had persevered, stayed in the home computer market, who knows what might have been.

      I've been a Meijer devote for almost 20 years now. I'd hate to live in a town without one. We just went there today! RIP Fred.

      Fred Meyer in our area has an eerily similar name and is also dead.
