Art and Drawing Software

Of all things, one would not imagine using a TS 1000 to produce drawings. And yet, a surprising number of โ€œetch-a-sketchโ€ programs were available for this computer, all operating in the confines of 64×44 pixels.

The TS 2068 was a far more capable computer and, as one might expect, there were a great number of artistic programs for it.
