My second time around with the TI-99/4A

[Omega-TI]

I realized today that I've been "into" the TI-99/4A longer than during my first "go around"...

 

Back in '81 or '82 I started with a basic console, worked my way up to a cassette deck and then then finally into a P-Box...

 

This was my system in 1985

 

In 1986/87 I had to give up my den for the baby...

... so I built this hutch and took over a corner of the bedroom.

 

I took this photo in 1990 about six months before I "moved on" to a PC.

 

After a 23 year "break" in 2013 I started all over again...

 

One little corner of a room did not cut it, so for a time it shared desk space with the PC in 2014...

 

In 2015 I put it in it's own dedicated spot...

It looked pretty bare in there by itself...

 

... so in 2016 I started building up my system (for the second time)...

 

In 2017 it started to look a little like it does now.

 

In 2018 I kept adding and upgrading and even removing a few items that became obsolete (to me)...

 

In 2019 things started slowing down on the upgrades, but I added a few items to make things operate easier and improve operability...

 

Now at the end of 2020 I only added one item for the TIPI, for faster access to the SD card...

 

 

I wonder what 2021 will bring?

Loved this, great seeing the changes throughout the years.

 

I hope to make a nice little setup over time, sadly I'm unsure I have any pics of my original setup(although to be honest it was always on the carpet Infront the lounge TV but still).

 

Would be great to see other people's setups aswell.
