For me it's because the coco was my first computer.

I always wanted a hard drive, multi pak; for the longest time I didn't
even have a floppy, just cassette. Never had a hard drive, never had a
multi-pak (till now, and I don't really have room for it).

My point is, when I got floppy, did I wish I was still using cassette?
Did you?

We can have our cake and eat it too. Hence the superboard, superide,
etc. and maybe cocousb.
