[Coco] Deal to first 3 responders

[Frank Swygert]

There's also the point that RS didn't want the CoCo to be too powerful or attractive -- it would then take away from the more profitable Tandy 1000 sales.

That's bean counters for you. Even $.02 ruins the price point for them, so they shut-down what could have been a quality booster, and instead invest even more money for warranties, etc, than would have been needed for that extra little bit spent improving reliability and quality. IT boils down to corporate greed, or in this case, a lack of caring about details in their little machine.
