So my hp 22S and my Casio programmable are computers? Perhaps the questions should be "What is the best selling home computer?" That rules out the 2600 since it is indeed a computer but not for home programming. (Sure you could buy the keypad stuff to make basic programs, but where are the peripherals? As I heard, they didn't really get the keypad stuff to go over well with the public. So the 2600 could only be considered a computer IF the person bought the keypad and basic with it. Well not many people bought the keypad so it is definately not the best selling home computer.) I vote for the Sinclair 2000 (TI) hahaha :> What about nintendo? It could be a computer! haha Byron -- Byron 'Maxwell' Guernsey | /// //\\ specter@disk.UUCP or | /// // \\ uunet!ukma!corpane!disk!specter | \\\/// //====\\ "All we are, is dust in the wind dude!" - Ted | \\\/ // \\ m i g a
