[Coco] Need to replace deteriorated original disks

[Steve Bjork]

I'm working on version of Z-89 for modern media.  What has slowed me 
down a bit was the lost of CoCo development system.  It was stolen about 
8 years ago from my storage unit.

I've been slowly rebuilding the source code from backup floppies and may 
have working system sometime after the new year.
