[Coco] [Color Computer] The evolution of the Coco..

[Basil Fitze]

Glen,

The Coco could of followed the same line as the Mac go through the 
Motorola CPU 68000 family etc... Then to the Power PC.  The Coco would 
never of taken the Windows route.  I look at the Mac as the Coco's 
bigger sister  and I would place the  Amiga  and the  Atari  68000 in 
that same  family.   I alway felt that Tandy  made the wrong choice of 
dropping the Coco  and switching to PC  compatibles but they did and we 
have to live with it, but we can dream.  Imagine  the Coco X  would be  
like the iMac of today we could imagine a quad PowerPC CPU's with back 
ward compatiblitiy to the Coco 1, 2 and 3 with OS-9000.   If I could 
afford a  G5 I would get one, I will never get rid of my Coco again even 
if I have to take to my old age home and play Zaxxon with all the other 
Geizers I will.

The iMac is not a Coco, but a Coco could of been a iMac. I love my 
Coco's but I like alot of people moved to the PC due to work and jumping 
on the bandwagon.  I am just glad to have my Coco's back as I lost my 
origional collection in a move, but that is also history. 

 Thank god for Cloup9 and people who still have a vision.
