However TI 99/4A was sold out when and cost how much
for the full show?
Hint base console was $49, with everything TI sold under $450, that was
with disk, games and even programming packages and various programs
to do real stuff. What year was that? hint (pre 1983).
The only time I recall a 99/4A selling for that kind of money was when TI was clearancing
them off to get out of the home computer market. My dad bought one from K-Mart for $310
right before they cut the price on them, and that was certainly not the highest price they
sold the base console for. The PEB and all the peripherals were mad money, considering you
could buy a CP/M machine or perhaps an IBM PC for similar money once you put all the
pieces together.
