   Gaylen Hintz to Allen Scofield   
   CoCo2

   For reasons unknown to us Allen Scofield said thus to All:   
      
    AS> A friend just brought me a Radio Shack (Tandy) 64k Color   
    AS> Computer 2. He collects old game consoles like the NES and   
    AS> Atari and picked it up with them. I've not yet had a chance to   
    AS> hook it up.   
      
    cool, the MC10 , also from Radio Shack, was my very first computer. I then   
   moved on to the original CoCo but skipped the coco2 and went with the CoCo3.    
   Those were great little machines in their time. The CoCo could run the OS9 (   
   not to be confused with apple's OS ) based on unix code.  Multi user multi   
   tasking on an 8 bit machine. I loved it but finally got sold it cheap to a   
   needy family.   
      
    AS> Will report back soon.   
      
    Looking forward to it. :)
