Hmm, $3 extra to include Windows!  Sounds about right...

I still have a $99 computer (it's new price), a Z80 based VZ-300 from
the 1980s.  It runs off a single 12 volt power source, and plugs into an
ordinary TV set.

Not exactly a brilliant thing, but it (cheap personal computers) *HAS*
been done before.
