[Coco] Coco2 with coco3 style KB?

[L. Curtis Boyle]

The 57 key keyboard with black surround was originally for the Deluxe Color Computer (which was going to come out in mid to late 1984). When it was cancelled, since they already had thousands of keyboards made, Radio Shack sold them separately until they were sold out.
