I also purchased an interesting CoCo off eBay several months ago. It is the 
same case design shown in the pictures of the TDP-100, but it has a "Radio 
Shack TRS-80" badge instead of a TDP-100. The Catalog Number on the bottom 
is 26-3004A. Inside is a CoCo 1 64K F board. It has a CoCo 3 style keyboard, 
but the bezel is black rather than the gray found on my CoCo 3.

Does anyone know if Radio Shack ever shipped such a beast, or is it more 
likely that someone just pieced together different parts and replaced the 
TDP-100 badge with one from a CoCo?
