Done!.

I didn't know about the MicroBee... maybe I saw that website fly by on a
post here and missed it. Now I am trying to work out the January 2013
fiscal "cliff" to budget in a kit ;-)

Hopefully RS would muster some brass to come out with a single board 8 bit
computer kit, a bonafide genuine CoCo or TRS-80 is unreal to expect but
something close. Would make for a great weekends project.
