[Coco] Interesting Ebay find.

[Glen VanDenBiggelaar]

Very interesting indeed. I wonder if Tandy UK used up the remaining  white
shells before the CoCo 2 shells were fully into production, or they had some
problems with the PAL components at first fitting into a CoCo 2 shell. I
guess we will never find out. Interesting trace wire there also.
(I can never get the photos of bottom labels to come out that nice even with
my $1500 camera). Thanks Phil, If I ever have a moment to update the site, I
will add this info to it.

That would appear to be the somewhat rare White "F" board CoCo.  Interesting
that it wears a CoCo 2 label and has only 16k of RAM.  These were sold with
64k under the TDP (Tandy data Products) label for a time too.  I had for a
time sought one, however times change and I getting ready to thin my
collection.  This looks to be a collectable item to me.



Enjoy,
