Tearing down a TI-99 PEB... Help!

Mon Apr 9, 2012 1:06 AM

I recently acquired a Peripheral Expansion Box for my TI-99/4A. The box is in pretty rough shape, so I thought I would tear it down, clean it up and reassemble...

I'm running into some issues, however...

Does the front plate (the plastic face) some how SNAP onto pegs or something, or do I have to unscrew it from behind? If the latter is the case, gaining access to the screws (apart from the ones in the middle) is proving difficult. Also, is there an easy way to gain access to the floppy to replace it (should I need to do that)?

Oddly assembled beast...

Any help would be appreciated!

Storage for Cartridges?

Anyone have any unique storage suggestions for 8-Bit cartridges? Did you find that ideal item at The Container Store that cartridges fit into perfectly???

Pics would help!

I may have an opportunity to buy a Tweety Board from someone... Any idea what the current going price is on those?

Manual for the TI-99 PEB?

I recently acquired (finally) a PEB for my TI-99/4A... Anyone know where I can find some documentation about it? I've poked around online and found nothing so far...

A decent Craigslist haul...

Sun Mar 25, 2012 4:44 PM

Just returned home with my latest Craigslist acquisition...

An expanded 520STfm (in SUPERB condition) with mouse, a Mouse Master, manual and all cables along with a box of over 40 games and other programs for $40.00 USD. I'm pretty pleased. :-)

I do have a question, however, a bunch of the disks have the words "HOLLYWOOD CONNECTION" printed on them (directly on the disk). Was this a company that rented software or something? Anyone know anything about this???
