While we are going down this rabbit hole, I have a complete TI 99/4a system with tape reader, 5" floppies and expansion cabinets (2) and some of the rom software: DOD, Calc, etc plus manuals. Been trying to find it a new home. Need to find a history buff or museum or something. Ancient History is the thread, hope I'm not hijacking. Located in north central Texas, north of Dallas.
Somewhere like this maybe: http://www.oldcalculatormuseum.com I found this site looking for the Victor 4900 which I used to repair and where I performed my first programming updating the tax tables for a company that used it for wages.
I had a TI-58C as student: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI-59_/_TI-58 I programmed a space shuttle simulator, but it was too slow and didn't respond well. It filled all the memory to capacity. I failed one exam at least due to that calculator: the keys bounced, so that one could get 123.444456 without noticing. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
