[Coco] Trump killed the Color Computer Archive site?

[David Ladd]

William,

The DNS Lookup servers 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 are those provided by Google.

I use to use OpenDNS a long time ago, but ran into some websites that it
felt I should not use and would block my ability to get to them.  So I
switched to Google so I wouldn't get filtered lol.
