I'm thinking of buying a PCjr. for family use - we have 12 yr.-old
and 5 yr-old daughters. Use will likely be educational, word
processing, recreational programming  and a little work from the office's
PC (when possible). I'm interested in any experience and advice
from PCjr. owners, with respect to reliability, desirable software and
peripherals, usefulness of BASIC provided with the machine, the IBM
color monitor, etc. Thanks in advance and please mail responses.
