[Coco] RE: [Color Computer] BBS Programs for COCO3/OS9

[Tom Watt]

When you say disk drives, do you mean floppy drives or hard drives?    Either
way I’d have to wait or look for something else.  I saw a cable that lets you
use your PC as a hard drive, would that work?



Where do I get OS9 itself?  Right now I don’t have a single item related to a
COCO in any way.  The COCO3’s listed on eBay currently make no mention of OS9.



A multi-pak is just a multi-cartridge adaptor right?  What do I need for
multiple RS232 ports?



Thanks,



Tom

Coco3's go for as little as $10 on eBay. Disk drives are way expensive right
now - over $100 for some reason (usually $20). Multipaks are various
prices - sometimes as low as $10.

You can download a lot of OS9 software from http://www.rtsi.com/wwa.html
