[Coco] whats your coco doing now?

[Derek]

I use my Coco 3 bridged through my PC serial port to play Muds via telnet and have use it to connect to telnet BBS's. 512K Coco 3 and Twilight term for ANSI support works great. I am using it with an old Magnavox Green Screen Monochrome monitor which is kind of neat in it's own way. I also play games on it too mainly with disk images pulled form PC via Drivewire. 
I have a shelving unit and switch boxes set up to switch between 3 vintage computers coco, atari 130 XE and apple 2 GS, switch box so they can all share the monitor and an RS-232 switch box so they can all access PC for disk images and the telnet thing.

What do you use it for now?


An open discussion of the possible uses or a tandy color computer now.


 Its not internet,, What else do you use it for?


Has it earned a spot on your desk? Mine has earned its place here. but for different reasons most would assume.


Lets talk about why you still want to tinker with it now.
