1. Lol, and that is different to Pac-Man how?

They just changed the gaping-mouthed Pac Man sprite for a little car and called it Car Wars. :D

4. A Texas Instruments TI994a.

I was a fan of the Atari 400/800 line myself, but this little booger was pretty nice too, for the day.

Notice how that $525 in today's money will more than get you a killer iMac or Vista system. My how times change.

14. I missed a lot of good 80s tech by being in Brazil. We only had:

TRS/80's - I, III, and CoCos. (All clones.)
Apple II and IIe clones. (Yeah, clones.)
Various wretched Sinclair clones.
Generic CP/M machines galore.
MSX's.
PC's, ça va sans dire.

No Amigas, Commodores, TI's, or Ataris. No early Macs either. :cry:

5. This is my favorite old school game...

From about the same time I think..
