Since I mentioned emulation on a small PC type computer, thought some of 
you would get a kick out of this:
http://www.mini-itx.com/projects/bbcitxb/
It's a BBC model B with a mini-itx board inside, running a hacked 
version of Linux that boots up with a screen similar to the old BBC 
computer! There's a link for a similar case hack using an old Commodore 
SX-64 (the portable version) also. The BBC-B is closer to a CoCo though. 
Of course it's not really an advanced version of the BBC-B, but with a 
customized emulator a mini-itx board inside a CoCo2/3 case could be a 
pseudo CoCo4!!??
