New subject: TI99

True, that's bizarre... they appear to be especially common in the
northwest.  But just try to find a PEB!

 Not along the same topic but I'm curious - just how
 popular was the TI99.  From what I've seen scrounging
 over the years it looks like it might have been the
 most popular (or at least most numerous) micro ever made.
 Now, I know that's not true.  It's just strange - I
 could go out this weekend and easily come home with 30-
 40 of these machines, wait a month or two and probably do
 it again.  There's one local junk store here that had
 11 of them lying around when last I checked.  They're
 like roaches ;).
