I have the following items available. Generally includes the box & manual, but I'll check before I sell it.
1) CoCo 3 w/512k. Small story... When I did the 512k upgrade, it didn't work properly with the jumper soldered. I was getting memory failures occasionally. With a jumper in there, it does work properly. So, I left the jumper in there and used it that way for years. I think I put a post-it note in there to remind me.
2) CoCo 2. 64k, extended basic.
3) CoCo 1. Standard basic. NON-working. Originally an 'F' board, but it failed, so it's the version after that. Drove 50 miles to RadioShack to have it repaired. Drove 50 miles back. A week later, we drove 50 miles, picked up, drove 50 miles back. It didn't work. Drove back that same day dropped it off and drove back. A week later, we drove 50 miles, had them test it there in the store. It didn't work, so they shipped it off again. A week later they called, this time I had them test it then, while I was on the phone. Drove 50 miles and picked it up, drove 50 miles back. A total of 500 miles... The whole thing went out some time later and I didn't bother trying to fix it. I just got the CoCo 2 above.
4) Kraft Premuim 2 two button joystick. Free floating & spring action selectable.
5) two hi-res mouse / joystick adapters.
6) Blue Streak Ultima serial -> Centronics printer adpater. 300 baud to 19200 baud.
7) Tandy Direct Connect Modem Pak.
8) Tandy Direct Connect Modem DCM-3
9) Chess. Microchess, cat 26-3050
10) Bustout. cat 26-3056
11) Cyrus 26-3064
12) Edtasm+ cat 26-3250
(All catridges have been opened, so I could put tape over the autostart pin. I may have the manuals, still. Somehwere.)
13) two cassette audio adapter cables. Looks like one had problems, because I've replaced one of the cables with a plug from a headphone. Probably should be sold as a pair, just in case.
14) FD-502 floppy. Single dsdd drive. Still has the box, the styrofoam, the wrapping plastic inside, etc. I often keep the boxes in case I ever need to pack stuff away.
15) Deft Pascal v4.1 Good printed manual & nice notebook holder. I got years of solid use out of this.
16) OS9 Pascal v2.00.00 Includes the virtual code swapper. Allows programs up to 8.3megabytes of code! (Although how I was supposed to fit 8.3megabytes of executable code onto a single floppy, I never could figure out...[grin])
17) OS9 Level 1
18) The sands of Egypt
19) Koronis Rift
20) Rogue
21) Shanghai.
22) Where in the world is carmen sandiego. Includes world fact book to answer the questions.
23) Laser Surgeon: The microscopic mission.
24) Flight Simulator II
25) GhanaBwana
26) Pegasus and the phantom riders
27) Cave Walker
28) Zone Runner: An intergalactic trade mission
29) Kings quest 3
30) DL Logo
31) RoboCop cartridge
32) Tetris cartridge.
33) Predator cartridge.
And I think that's all the hardware and full software I have left. I sold the rest many years ago. Probably all I have left are a few CoCo books (Bill Barden's asm, etc.). And lots of magazines.
If anybody wants any of this junk, let me know....
