[Coco] Fwd: connect to a modern display

[Steve Strowbridge]

I was not aware the CoCo 2 could go up to 512K of RAM, is that a
misconception on your end, or a lack of knowledge on mine?
I knew the CoCo 1 and 2 could go up to 64K but I have no recollection or
experiences with 3rd party memory expansion options for CoCo 1 and 2.  And
I'm not a historian on any of that stuff either :)

I am aware of standard 512K options for the CoCo 3 and some 3rd party
upgrades to go form 2MB up to even 8MB.

I'm actually interested in a possible clean composite output option for a
CoCo 1/2.
