Huge failure my ass. Come at me on munch man, Alpiner, or Tombstone City. Or coding vaguely racist things like Mr. Bojangles, one of the first codes in the early books.

Had one at home and used the hell out of it, don't get me wrong. Was my first computer. Played the Zork series on that thing. But, it had issues and wasn't a financial success.

It had fewer issues than almost anything I've owned since. I bet it would still work if I got the right adaptors. Wasn't a huge financial success though. They seemed content with early coding and games, and didn't move into word processing etc.
