[Coco] [Color Computer] Is this a discussion about a new Coco?

[Al Hartman]

I'd be interested in buying one.

Meaning a Coco that could be put into a standard ATX
case and use standard PC Components (floppy drives,
etc...).

There are several projects that have done this
recently...

The Commodore One, is a C-64/128 on an ATX Sized
board.

The Apple One has been re-done as the "Replica One".

That Commodore Joystick TV game is actually a full
C-64. If you open the case, there are pads to attach a
PS/2 Port for a keyboard, and a serial port for an
external disk drive... (made by the same lady who
developed the Commodore One)

I would love an updated Coco that would output to VGA,
used PS/2 Mice and Keyboards, used an ATX Case, had an
on-board disk controller so I could attach an old 360k
Drive for compatibility, AND a 1.44 3.5" drive.

Had ADOS 3 on board.
Hitachi 6809 Clone Processor
Used standard PC-100/PC-133 Dimms for Memory
PC Standard RS-232 Port for Modems
Ethernet port?
VGA output as well as composite.
USB?

That would be a nice play machine. Especially if the
price for a board could be kept below $250 or so...

Is that what people are talking about here?
