[Coco] Show-and-tell project...

[tonym]

ALLRAM is here, but I think it isn't coco3 compatible, or needs a patch:

I DO have some cups for a Tandy Model 100, if those will work in any way.
Mebbe the 1B has the jack for the cups, or something....

All:

I'm working on an idea for my son's (2nd grade) school work. What I'd 
like to do is set up an "operational" BBS and show how computers used 
to talk to each other. I've got several cocos and 2 operational 
modems -- one of them even has the "high speed" light come on if it 
connects at 2400 baud... The other modem is a Modem IB (cradle switch).

Out of curiosity, does anyone have a working acoustic modem? I had a 
Volksmodem years ago, but it is long gone. I have an old telephone 
that is of the right shape for an acoustic modem. If you have such a 
device that you could loan/sell, please contact me offline. Thanks.

One more thing. I seem to have misplaced my copy of the all-ram BBS 
program. Again, suggestions for what would be the best demonstration 
would be greatly appreciated.

By the way, my son likes some of the old coco games. We used to spend 
hours playing "Peanut Butter Panic". He still uses the coco when he 
wants to know when the next solar or lunar eclipse is...
