I want to fix my TI. Who can do it?

• Western Horizon Technologies repairs 99/4A computers and Myarc Geneve computers. Free Estimates. Their web page is located at http://www.whtech.com/ti/index.html.

• Links to technical articles and 99/4A pin out diagrams can be found on this site at http://www.99er.net/tech.html

I'm looking for a particular TI game. Where can I find it?

• As far as I know, there are no PC (or other platform) versions of any TI games. When I say 'TI' games, I mean those games such as Parsec or Munchman that were made by TI only for the TI-99/4A. My only suggestion is to get one of the TI-99/4A emulators and get the ROM for the game that you are searching for. (See below)

Are there any TI-99/4A Emulators? Where can I get ROMs?

• There are several TI-99/4A emulators. Check the emulator page on this website at http://www.99er.net/emul.html.

• I do not offer and ROM images on this site. Please don't email to ask for any; I can't supply them.
