[Coco] Looking for non working coco case.

[steve]

I'm totally confused by this.

Are you wanting to build a system that uses one of the emulators to run 
CoCo software on the PC or Mac but put it in the case? Or, are you wanting 
to make your own hardware to emulate a CoCo using a CoCo case?

I'm assuming the later is not the case. So, the question is, why on earth 
would you try to build a computer into a CoCo case to run an emulator that 
would run on any PC under Windows, Linux, or on a Mac running Mac OSX.

Here's why I'm questioning it...

The CoCo case is fine for handling CoCo hardware that it was designed for. 
But, a PC or Mac requires more hardware, powersupply, etc and all of the 
ports are different than what the Coco case is built for. My point is all 
that hardware is not going to fit into a CoCo case, and should you get it 
to fit, it's going to be gigantic mess.

Anyway, I'm really curious to have more detail on what you are trying to 
do.

Steve

Hi, 

I'd like to build myself an emulated COCO using any old color computer 
case. I'd prefer to get a coco3 case, but anyone will do. Please contact me 
at ben_jimenez at yahoo.com . Thanks.
