As you can see I don't upgrade much and I never get the latest/most expensive chip. I'm only getting the 3.6 because I don't have to pay for it

Yay! Another TI99'er! I have the expansion kit w/ floppy drive and everything!
The thing was the size of a tower PC on its side and weighed many times more!
The expansion card for extra RAM was a whopping 32K-64K or so!
