[Coco] CoCo 1 keyboards

[Bruce W. Calkins]

That is a second version CoCo 2 keyboard.  The "F" board CoCo 1 
introduced the Mylar connector and CoCo 2 & 3 keyboards are 
interchangeable.  Earlier CoCo 1 keyboards used a ribbon cable to a 
socket to pin connection.  Some sort of adapter is needed to use a later 
version Mylar keyboard with an earlier CoCo 1.
