This whine, rubs a raw nerve, and those who know me, know that does not 
happen often!



When the other companies threw in their chips and sent piles of CoCo related 
items to the landfill, Mark reached into his own pocket and rescued as much 
as he could.  His prices are scarcely more than what he has into the items. 
Were he a business, rather than a hobbyist, his prices would be FIVE TIMES 
or more what they are.  The reason that he is the only one left in the CoCo 
supply side is that NO ONE else invested their TIME and PERSONAL MONEY to 
rescue the stock.  For most practical purposes, the CoCo has been a dead 
horse for years.  For those of us who find pleasure in them, Mark is the 
man.



Now, if you don't like the state of the shrinking CoCo world, you won't be 
missed when you ride out on your high horse.
