I played around with that a bit at one point, started out using the
much better audio facilities of a TI-99/4a, but the coco just didn't
have the audio system to make "pleasurable" sounds when I parked the
4a in the basement. FWIW its still there! The deciding factor for
me was that the coco was actually a lot more versatile than the 4a.
And a lot cheaper to expand too.
