I did a lot more than play with them, Gerald...
I founded and ran "Practical Applications, San Carlos, Calif.".
We offered such breakthrough products as "The TRS-80 LightPen" (built on
a a "Bic Clic" chassis [no kidding <smile>]), "TRS-80 Pilot" (the
language), "The Adam Osborne Accounting Package" for the TRS-80, and a
machine-language library for creating input fields within your basic
program.
Later after we were bought out by Programma International (a
mostly-Apple ][ house), we brought out "Point", the formatting/markup
language for "Michael Shrayer's Electric Pencil".
