[Coco] MAX-10

[Tom Seagrove]

The click was turning on and off the cassette port.  An update to the program allowed you to turn it on and off.  The dongle went in another port, I think a joystick port, and that was for copy protection. I donate the dongle for "investigation" and after processed received back a replacement encased is resin in a 35mm film case.  I still have it somewhere in my box of stuff.

I've been thinking of doing a simular video with Max-10 and MacWrite.
I also have MacWrite for this old Mac.

The clicker was a copy protection device.
