[Coco] Copyright???

[clifford redding]

I'll go out on a limb here and play the devils advocate.
The CoCo is no longer commercially available. The software, magazine articles,
etc. are no longer for a viable machine. So would it be such a strech to say
that the software, mag articles, etc. no longer fall under the copyright act based 
on the fact the machine is no longer available?

You're reading it wrong. It only exempts obsoleted software from the
*circumvention* provision.
