I've got several TI99/4As between my basement and my garage. Anyone want 
one?

I think I've already mentioned this here, but my first computer was the 
Heathkit H-89 my father built on our diningroom table as part of a 
college correspondence course. I was probably only 4 at the time. But I 
can remember spending many evenings sitting next to him, watching him 
put it together, and to this day, the smell of solder smoke always 
brings back that memory.
