My friend Isaac and I were chatting about computer games and what I grew up playing on — he’s a console/joystick kid, I was a keyboard kid. I had the TI-99 Texas Instruments personal computer. Boasting 16 colors and 16 kb of RAM, this powerhouse of a computer played cool games (like Parsec, Hunt the Wumpas, and some other game I played alot). I also learned a little BASIC programming — but you couldn’t save the scripts unless you were fortunate to have the full system. We didn’t.

Check out this link on old-computers.com. They’ve got photos, ads, and even links to emulators. How funny is that.
