     Last Friday I heard that Texas Instruments is getting out of the 99/4A
computer market.  I just read the message in the net confirming this.  Yesterday
I ordered their Extended BASIC cartridge.  In the near future I would like to
buy their Editor/Assembler cartridge.  Can anyone tell me if T.I. will be making
cartridges for a while longer, or will they be stopping all production on 99/4A
products immediately?

     I would like to know so that I may order the cartridge when it is still
available.  Please respond by mail.

     PLEASE, no "I told you so" letters about how the 99/4A is not a good
machine and what I should do with it!  I personally like the machine very much,
although I must admit there is room for improvement.
