[Coco] [Color Computer] Re: The XGameStation Do-It-Yourself Video Game System Has Been Released!

[James the Animal Tamer]

It's legit, and exciting news!  It's not often these days that a new 
user-programmable computer comes around -- and that's what the Color 
Computer was, eh?  Soon someone will announce the C-One computer -- 
that'll be exciting news too!

I have a funny anecdote...
The Amiga 1000, with its 68000 microprocessor and linear bitmapped 
modes, was the true successor to the CoCo II line.  Did you notice 
that the default desktop colors were black, white, blue, and orange?  
Remind you of the artifact colors of the CoCo II's hi-res?

Its bitmaps were somewhat like the Atari playfields and its "sprites" 
were a lot like the Atari player graphics, so it was also the true 
successor to the Atari 8-bit line!

...and... the Amiga computers were manufactured and marketed by 
Commodore!  LOL!
