Exhibit A: The Best Buy in Boynton Beach, Florida, the day after Christmas 2019. If memory serves, I needed a cable. Or maybe that was just my flimsy excuse to visit the computer section - it's like a candy store to me.
After I found what I needed, the demo machines loomed like beacons of giddy opportunity. As background, I've been attracted to these display units like a moth to a flame ever since I was a child. I'm just old enough to remember the earliest machines, and spent many afternoons messing with whatever the local Radio Shack happened to have on display that day. TRS-80 Model III for the win, kids! Yes, I'm ancient.
We're way beyond impromptu in-store BASIC programming - 10 PRINT "something only a 10-year-old would say" | 20 GOTO 10 - these days, but you can still have fun with the Google command line.
As you can see here, apparently the algorithm has a drug problem with Sesame Street, and I'm betting it's Ernie's fault. He always seemed a little shady.
