Dear CoCo friends,

Since I received my CoCo 3 a month ago, I have been telling all my
fellow collectors about the system. I have been showing them
screenshots of games and related YouTube videos as well. They´re
getting curious and curious! Let´s say that Crystal City, Gate Crasher
and Donkey Kong freaked them out!!!!!

Unfortunately, Color Computer hasn´t been a favorite down here, you
know. We have had our share of CoCo clones (CP-400, CP-400 II and
CP-450), but I guess they were pretty expensive at the time. People
always preferred Apple II clones or ZX-Spectrum clones or MSX over the
CoCo.

Now I am doing my part! When it comes to CoCo 3 in Brazil, I think I´m
the pioneer in terms of using and collecting. If I succeed, soon we
will be seeing many CoCo 3 fans down here. CoCo rulez!

:-D



Take care and greetings from rainy Brazil,
