Nope, CA Digital are fully assembled Tano machines, or they where 2 
years ago when I bought my pair :)

Yep definatly worth having, the Dragon 64 (and Tano Dragon 64), have a 
pretty decent keyboard that is cirtainly better than the ones on the 
CoCo, for a start it has proper key switches :) I always wondered why 
Tandy never put a composite out on the CoCo, as it's not that hard to do.

Whoever bought that alas paid over the odds for it, I seem to remember 
mine only being in the $70-$80 range, and that included shipping to the 
UK :) Mind they did take a couple of months to get here :(

Cheers.

Phill.
