The TI computers all three, come with basic when you buy them. Two of them are selling as cheap or cheaper than the VIC 20. The one thing that I will admit that the VIC 20 has that the TI 99/4A doesn't is peek and poke. However the new and cheaper TI 99/2 does have these. They both offer excellent graphics and good computing power for the person who doen't like games. Also with the new peripherals the price of expanding is becoming tolerable.
